Take your drivetrain performance to a whole new echelon with the Nova Ride Carbon Ceramic Oversize Derailleur Cage, precision-engineered by French experts to elevate your Shimano 11-speed road groupset. Compatible with Shimano 105 R7000, Ultegra R8000/R8050/R8070, and Dura-Ace R9100/R9150/R9170, this masterpiece is the ultimate blend of performance engineering, design finesse, and race-grade material innovation.
Constructed with ultra-lightweight carbon fiber, aircraft-grade 7075 aluminum, and fully ceramic sealed bearings, this cage drastically reduces drivetrain friction, improves shifting smoothness, and delivers uncompromising reliability — whether you're sprinting for the finish line or crushing your next endurance ride.
Engineered for Performance – Designed for Durability
At just 68 grams, this oversize derailleur cage slashes unnecessary weight while enhancing chain wrap and drivetrain fluidity. The pairing of 14-tooth upper and 17-tooth lower aluminum pulleys ensures a more efficient chain path, decreasing tension and improving longevity. Unlike plastic jockey wheels that degrade over time, Nova Ride’s CNC-machined aluminum pulleys stand resilient through the rigors of competitive riding.
Sealed full-ceramic bearings shielded by alloy dust covers guarantee whisper-quiet operation and are impervious to oxidation, offering a long service life with virtually zero maintenance.
