Road riding has never been this much fun. That's because the redesigned Ultegra ST-R8170 Dual Control Levers have all-new ergonomics, even more precise brake modulation, and wireless electronic shifting. This trifecta lets you focus on the next sprint, the next descent, or the next joke from your riding partner. Shimano's new Ultegra ST-R8170 brake levers bring enhanced modulation and control to every ride by employing Shimano's proven SERVO WAVE technology. The all-new Di2 platform, used on both Dura-Ace and Ultegra, untethers the shifters while delivering the world's fastest, most reliable wireless shifting. Your time on the bike is precious, let Shimano make it even better. Servo Wave Precise Braking Control When you pull a Servo Wave brake lever, initial pad travel is fast, so little lever movement is needed to bring the pads into contact with the rotor. The power multiplication factor then increases rapidly at the pad-to-rim contact so more of the lever stroke is used to apply greater braking power with improved control. Shimano DCL Dual Control Lever DCL stands for Dual Control Lever. It has brake and shifting functions in the system and enables easy operation. Ergonomic innovation is as critical to higher standard performance as the added gearing. The shift internals borrows the robustness from Shimano's MTB technology and is so smooth and effortless that one finger shifts front and rear are possible. Indeed, shifting is the ultimate act of Shimano Total Integration and simply has to be experienced to be understood.
Overcoming the sometimes complicated cable routing of time trial and triathlon bikes, the Dura-Ace R9180 levers bring the confidence of hydraulic disc brakes to the sleekest bikes in the world. Combined with the plug and play ease of Shimano Di2 electronic shifting, they offer an advantage in any race. Aerodynamic and Ergonomic Smooth Gear Shifting Performance Optimum power transmitted with firm grip for a more aerodynamic and better grip feeling. The gear switch button is integrated inside and can be used without needing to change your hand grip. This ensures intuitive shifting control and enables you to maintain a firm grip when shifting through the gear range. Shimano Synchronized Shift System Compatible A single shifter button on each side of the shifting lever is optimised to function seamlessly with the Shimano Synchronized Shift system. This gear system offers better control and confidence in race conditions and is customisable to fit in the rider’s riding style. Plus, each switch has the option for multi-shift ON or OFF. And it’s compatible with Shimano E-Tube for internal cable routing for a cleaner cockpit area and stylish aesthetics throughout.
To the delight of riders and mechanics alike, the new Ultegra BR-R8170 caliper delivers enhanced modulation, a quieter brake system, and an easier than ever bleed process. The Ultegra R8170 disc brake caliper brings a new level of control to the road cycling world with enhanced modulation and a quicker initial braking point. Despite its smaller construction, the system is quieter than ever and easier to maintain. ICE Technologies The fade, which can occur to the disc brake rotor and pad when braking on a long downhill ride, for instance, has a negative impact on the braking performance. Shimano has adopted ICE Technologies disc brake rotor and ICE Technologies pad to realize the cooling technology for consistent performance. The clad disc brake rotor blade, which has a 3 layer-sandwich structure of stainless steel, aluminium and stainless steel, provides better radiation performance. Also, the radiation fin has been adopted for the pad. Moreover, the clad disc brake rotor blade and the radiator fin provide long pad life, less noise, less fade and lightweight. One Way Bleeding “ONE WAY BLEEDING” was developed for quick and easy prevention of air in our hydraulic system. We have streamlined the oil route throughout the system to prevent air bubbles from being captured in the system.
The Shimano Ultegra R8100 series caliper brakes offer a clear contact feeling while balancing rigidity, weight, and stopping power. With increased clearance for 28mm tyres, the sleek design is still fetching. Powerful and Responsive Shimano SLR-EV Braking Efficiency SLR-EV is Shimano's SLR braking technology with a dual symmetric pivot brake caliper. The short-arm brake design employs two bearings and a roller to realize greater efficiency in the pivot area and deliver superior modulation and power for braking. Together with the BC-9000 brake cable, the latest calipers deliver 36% more braking power than Shimano's previous brake model.
Among the greatest performing Dual Control Levers on the market, Ultegra R8150 Di2 offers 12-speed shifting with refined ergonomics and is exceptionally lightweight. Ultegra R8150 Di2 Dual Control Levers are the ultimate in reliable performance thanks to a Di2 electronic wired gear connection and lightweight rim brakes. Refined ergonomics and advanced materials show the racing pedigree of these levers.
