Shimano Dura-Ace CS-R9200 12 Speed Road Cassette

The Shimano Dura-Ace CS-R9200 represents Shimano’s highest level of drivetrain technology for modern 12-speed road bikes.

Designed for the Dura-Ace R9200 Di2 groupset, this cassette combines lightweight construction, extremely smooth shifting and high pedaling efficiency even at race speeds.

It is built for performance-oriented cyclists, racers and riders looking for the best possible road drivetrain experience.

HYPERGLIDE+ technology

HYPERGLIDE+ technology, derived from Shimano MTB systems, delivers fast and seamless shifting even under heavy pedaling loads.

During sprints, accelerations or steep climbs, the drivetrain maintains smooth shifting performance without requiring riders to ease pedal pressure.

• Faster and smoother shifting
• Excellent chain stability
• High performance under load
• More consistent pedaling feel

The gear progression is optimized to maintain efficient cadence on both flat terrain and climbs. 

Shimano 12-speed compatibility

The CS-R9200 is compatible with Shimano 12-speed road drivetrains.

• Dura-Ace R9200 Di2
• Ultegra R8100 Di2
• Compatible Shimano HG+ 12-speed systems

One of the most appreciated features among cyclists is compatibility with traditional Shimano 11-speed road freehub bodies.

This often allows riders to use existing wheelsets without replacing the freehub body. 

Real-world road performance

On the road, the Dura-Ace R9200 cassette delivers an exceptionally precise and quiet shifting feel.

Downshifts remain fast and smooth during hard braking or sudden accelerations, which is especially appreciated in racing situations.

The lightweight construction also contributes to improved drivetrain responsiveness.

Premium Dura-Ace construction

Shimano uses different materials to optimize weight, stiffness and durability.

• High-strength steel sprockets
• Larger titanium sprockets
• Aluminum spider carriers
• Premium Dura-Ace finish

This construction reduces weight while maintaining excellent rigidity and shifting precision. 

Available gear ratios

The Shimano Dura-Ace CS-R9200 is available in multiple gear range options:

• 11-30T
