Shimano Alivio

Shimano Alivio is Shimano's mid-range mountain bike groupset, sitting above Acera and Altus in the MTB hierarchy and offering a significant step up in shifting performance and component quality for recreational trail riders, commuters, and everyday cyclists. Designed for 9-speed drivetrains, Alivio components deliver reliable, smooth shifting with Shimano's proven HyperGlide cassette technology for consistent performance across a wide range of riding conditions. At Swinnerton Cycles, we stock Shimano Alivio cassettes and drivetrain components for cyclists building or maintaining 9-speed MTB and hybrid drivetrains.

The Alivio CS-HG400 cassette is available in multiple sprocket configurations to suit different terrain and gearing preferences, while the CS-HG200 provides a 7-speed option for older or simpler drivetrain setups. Alivio components are a popular choice for commuters and recreational riders who want reliable Shimano quality without the cost of higher-end groupsets.
