The introduction of Di2 to Shimano’s 105 front derailleur represents a dramatic leap forwards for the Japanese brand’s most popular groupset. Even in its mechanical form, a 105 front mech offered smooth, precise gear shifts; the addition of Di2 to this already exceptional groupset, means your gear changes will be quicker and more reliable than ever. Electronic Shifting For The Masses: Di2 is Shimano’s electronic gear shifting system but until now it had only been available on the Japanese component maker’s top-tier models. In introducing Di2 to the 105 range, the smooth, crisp feel of electronic gear changes are now available to a whole bunch of new cyclists. It’s no secret that Dura-Ace and, even, Ultegra are ultra-premium groupsets, only obtainable by pros and the financially well-endowed. However, no longer is electronic shifting available only to the elite. A 105 Di2 front derailleur has made electronic gear changing more affordable than ever. Over the years, Shimano have continued to review the shape and style of their electronic front derailleurs. The R7150 front mech draws on inspiration from the well-established models. It is sleek and subtle, and will easily enhance any bike it adorns. Synchronized Shifting: The 105 Di2 front derailleur is compatible with Shimano’s Synchronized Shift system. Through this system you can set up your shifting to be full synchronized, semi-synchronized, or manual. In fully synchronized mode if you shift the rear derailleur, the front derailleur can change should it no longer offer an optimum chain line. In semi-synchronized mode, the rear derailleur will automatically adjust when the front mech is changed. In manual mode, you’ll be free to choose when the derailleurs shift. What’s more, the R7150, without any cables to thread, is simple to install and easy to set up. Once you’re up and running with your 105 Di2 system, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without electronic gear changes.
