The wider clearance of the Shimano Ultegra R8000 brake makes it compatible with larger tyre sizes such as 700x28C. The stabilizer between the axles reduces deformation and improves the braking efficiency, offering a clear contact feeling with balanced rigidity, weight and stopping power.
The new BR-R8010 offers the same beautiful sleek design as the BR-R8000, making it compatible with larger tire sizes such as 28C.
Better heat dispersion than current road disc systems.
This Shimano BR-R8070 road bike disc brake caliper has a sleek design that integrates seamlessly into the profile of your modern bike. Created for use on modern bikes with flat mount caliper mounting points, it can also be adapted with a flat mount to post mount adaptor (sold separately) for frames with post mount points.

The Optislick gear cable has been specially optimised to enhance shifting performance with Shimano 105 5800 and Tiagra 4700 drivetrain transmissions.
The brake mounts of BR-R8010 connect directly to the frame, reducing redundant parts and increasing overall braking performance.
The SM-BH90 Hose has been specially designed for high-pressure Shimano hydraulic disc brakes with a 90 degree banjo connector. This model has a long banjo and hose made from resin material for years of long-lasting use. Compatible with Shimano XT M8020.
These Shimano Alivio T4000 brake levers are specifically designed for road bikes with drop handlebars. Ideal for use on classic road bikes that use separate gear shifters, these provide a comfortable feel when braking thanks to their ergonomic shape. Another highlight is they're easy to use from the hoods or when you're riding in the drops, while their internal return spring makes sure that they're always ready when you need them. Coming complete with a hard-wearing aluminium construction with an anodised finish, these offer smooth braking performance in all weather conditions. Technologies: - Will fit a whole range of handlebar diameters, from 23.8 to 24.2mm. - Caliper brake levers designed for drop handlebars. - Anodised aluminium finish stays looking good, even after hard use. - Ergonomic black hood and sculpted lever for comfort and control. - Designed for caliper brakes. - Return spring for assured braking control and response. - Lightweight at only 258g per pair. - Cables are included. Manufacturer's Part Number: BLR400
The super SLR dual pivot design of the Shimano R451 road bike brake keeps operating friction to a minimum, improving braking performance. The 57mm drop is measured from the central mounting bolt to a virtual point between the pads, which aligns with the centre of the pad at its lowest point.
The clad steel/alloy/steel rotor construction allows heat generated from braking to radiate quickly through the aluminium core achieving surface temperature drops of around 50 deg C. When used with Ice Tech pads surface temperatures can drop from around 400 to 300 deg C, this provides great improvements in performance all round Ice Tech rotors achieve long pad life, less noise and less fade due to improved heat dispersion. Rotor contact surface has been developed for excellent pad clearing and cooling which increases pad performance and life.
The stainless steel braking surface on the Shimano RT66 disc brake rotor improves its brake pad clearing in muddy conditions while aiding cooling during periods of sustained braking. To mount it onto your wheel's hub, it uses the popular 6-bolt mounting standard.
