Technologies: Dual-Pivot Caliper: A lightweight, compact and durable braking system. Dual-pivot caliper brakes have made considerable progress in the reduction of tolerance and deflection as well as in durability. They have achieved a firm and instantaneous braking response while assuring longer service life. Moreover, the brake pads have improved the durability of 100% to help enjoy high-response braking over longer periods. New Super SLR: SLR stands for Shimano Linear Response. The New Super SLR design makes use of a friction-reducing mechanism in the caliper, lever and cable that improve response and modulation. Also, for the lever, the Servo Wave mechanism is adapted to provide quick contact of your shoe to the rim and longer stroke from the initial braking effect for better control. SLR is the essential factor in the Shimano dual-pivot caliper that delivers more braking power than conventional side-pulls. Click here to view the Shimano Brake Reference Guide.
Ready for adventure, the GRX400 gives you hesitation-free operation as you tackle rough roads, gravel and mud. It features convenient tool access for simple wheel replacement and installation. Shimano has also made bleeding easy and clean thanks to its one way bleeding system, which prevents air from getting into the system. With a streamlined oil route throughout the system to prevent air bubbles from being captured, you'll enjoy more efficient maintenance when required. Taking your braking set-up a step further, this caliper's piston uses Ice Tech technologies which avoid the negative impacts of long rides, especially on downhill journeys. Furthermore, its technology does this by using ceramic material to avoid heat transfer for constant stable braking, providing efficient stopping power without loss.
