The Dura-Ace 7700 9sp Downtube Shifter Set is built for durability and reliability, fully compatible with mega9 precision 9 speed drivetrain, its coated aluminium finish and SIS compatability makes it perfect for performance users.
Hyperglide sprockets have a computer designed tooth configuration with contoured shift gates, resulting in a crisp smooth shift even under load.
Hard-wearing and accurately machined to run straight and true, ensuring an even tension in the chain.
Di2 electronic drivetrains use a powerful long-life 7.4V Li-Ion battery, this charger that will keep your Di2 system shifting and keep it in top condition and ready for shifting.
Excellent sealing and reliability have been proven through repeated field tests in various riding conditions, including extreme temperatures, rain, mud, and cobble stone roads. Using a hard wired battery system which is both light weight and accurate compared to current wireless technology (as a wireless system would require 4 batteries: one for the RD, one for the FD, and one for each shift lever). The use of a single small and discreet battery is light weight, efficient and creates a robust and reliable system. One charge can give between 1000 and 2000 kilometre range depending on conditions and front mech operation (as this is the main power drain).
These pads are 1mm thinner than standard pads to help give extra clearance on the wider profile of some carbon rims.
The shift paddles now feature a more defined "click" for confidence in shifting and to prevent mis-shifts, also the shift buttons have been extended in length meaning they are easier to reach from the drops and hoods. E-Tube compatibility means that the function of the shift paddles can be customised to suit the rider. The 9170 shifters now include Synchro-shift technology that automatically moves the rear derailleur when the front ring is changed or moves the front chainring with the rear shifts to optimise chainline and drivetrain efficiency.
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.
The uninterrupted shifting experience of the Dura-Ace R9200 12-speed cassette range lets you climb, sprint, and push your limits without stopping to think about your next gear change. Larger driving cogs maximize drivetrain efficiency and create compatibility with both Shimano 11 and 12-speed freehub bodies. Shimano HYPERGLIDE+ Gear Shifting Precision HYPERGLIDE+ cassettes have revolutionized off-road shifting with their seamless shifts both up and down the gear range. Now it's time for technology to change road cycling. Even during maximal efforts up a climb or nearing the finish line, riders no longer need to back off to perform a shift. In any gear, Dura-Ace R9250 drivetrains maximize efficiency thanks to larger cogs and retain compatibility with existing 11-speed freehub bodies. All this while increasing to 12-gears and without increasing weight, Dura-Ace CS-R9200 cassettes are the new paradigm in road shifting.
A vital tool for serious cyclists, the Dura-Ace FC-R9200-P power meter delivers reliable, waterproof, dual-sided power measurement. With a rechargeable battery and Bluetooth LE and ANT+ connectivity, the FC-R9200-P is a user-friendly training partner. Bluetooth LE and ANT+ Connectivity The Dura-Ace FC-R9200-P power meter brings everything a data-driven cyclist could want. Its integrated, waterproof design brings all-weather reliability while delivering accurate information including left/right balance. A rechargeable Li-ion battery is user-friendly and Bluetooth LE and ANT+ connectivity ensure easy setup. Hollowglide Chainring Technology Hollow technology on the outer chainring. The Hollowglide construction ensures high rigidity while its hollow structure cuts down on weight yet maintains strength. This provides better power transfer and quicker and more precise front shifting performance. Hollowtech II Forged Crank Arms A lightweight crankset not only reduces the bike’s weight but decreases rotating mass to aid in acceleration. The challenge is to reduce the weight of the crank without reducing its strength and rigidity. Shimano's advanced forging technology has solved the problem through the HOLLOWTECH crank. Just like high-quality frame tubing, a hollow crank arm can provide amazing strength and rigidity at very lightweight. The Best Balance of Stiffness, Strength and Weight The concept of Hollowtech II technology is focused on producing a superior crankset that will maximize a rider’s power transfer. The rigidity of the crankset ensures pedalling efficiency while its low weight, a key element of the crankset, aids in cycling longer distances over which the rider needs to pedal more. Naturally, Shimano strove for the optimum balance between the conflicting needs of stiffness while producing a lightweight crank. The addition of Hollowtech II technology integrates the bottom bracket axle with the right crankarm for more stiffness and weight savings to achieve a high-dimensional balance. Its outboard bottom bracket bearing system provides better weight distribution and more pedalling stability, allowing for more efficient power transfer. The Shimano Dura-Ace R9200 12 Speed Power Meter has been developed by pursuing the optimum balance of stiffness & rotating performance in a lightweight and beautiful crankset design.
With Shimano's SLR-EV dual symmetric pivot design, the short-arm DURA-ACE R9200 series caliper brakes employ twin bearings and a roller to realize greater efficiency and deliver superior modulation and stopping power. This version's direct mount fitting ensures greater aerodynamic efficiency and increased stiffness and rigidity. Top Performance 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.
