The Shimano Ultegra RD-6700-G SS Rear Derailleur features a smoky grey finish and a trickle-down design from Dura-Ace.

The Shimano Ultegra RD-6700-G SS Rear Derailleur is designated as 'G' to denote its smoky grey finish. This is the same color as the electronic Di2 version, evoking the stealthy look of its Dura-Ace counterpart. Otherwise, it is the same as the standard 6700 unit.

The pivots on the body of the 6700 derailleur are wider than the previous 6600 unit, and are thus better to resist flexing and twisting when you shift under load. This design allows for better, faster shifting. As always with Ultegra, this is a trickle-down design from Dura-Ace, meaning it works with 7900 shifters as well as older Ultegra (6600 and SL) shifters. The cage design, along with the pulley cage placement, allows this derailleur to work with cogs as tall as 28 teeth.

The Shimano Ultegra RD-6700-G SS Rear Derailleur is designed to work with double chainrings and 10-speed cassettes. The total chainwrap capacity is 33 teeth. The limit screws are on the back of the derailleur, just above the barrel-adjuster, and can be accessed from the rear.
