All-new lever ergonomics on the Dura-Ace ST-R9270 dual control levers bring new levels of comfort and control to road cycling. With the fastest wireless shifting available and even more precise brake modulation, Dura-Ace redefines performance. Now featuring Servo Wave Action brake technology, the new Dura-Ace ST-R9270 brake lever delivers modulation and control like never before. Wireless shifting keeps your bike looking clean while offering the fastest, most precise gear changes available. All of this resides in a Dual Control Lever to employs the most advanced materials to offer lightweight and refined ergonomics that provide comfort and control for the most demanding conditions. 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. Shimano E-Tube E-Tube is Shimano's “service” that uses websites or apps to maximize the enjoyment of riding a bicycle by connecting the riders, the bicycles and Shimano. Shimano's genuine application E-Tube Project for Mobile allows you to customize your bike, update firmware, and maintain it by connecting it wirelessly to your bike. You can also get more detailed bike maintenance by connecting to your bike by wire with E-Tube Project via the Windows V4 application.
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.
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.
