Shimano’s 105 R7000 series might be the brand’s entry point to performance cycling, but, thanks to trickle-down technology from the premium ranges of Dura-Ace and Ultegra, it certainly isn’t sub-standard. Despite the lower price tag for these 105 shifters, you can still be assured of excellent stopping power and smooth gear changes. Whether it’s for the daily commute or your local road race, you’ll get reliable shifting performance every time. Shift Into Gear For this edition, the Japanese component makers have re-vamped the internal shifting unit to give smoother shifting than ever. The Dual Control Levers offers intuitive and quick shifting up/down the cassette, as well as excellent braking performance. Equally, changing between rings in the front is light, especially when paired with Shimano’s FD-R7000 front derailleur. So whether you’re changing-up gears for the decisive, race-winning sprint; or slamming on the brakes while descending Alpine climbs look no further. Braking Excellence As with all Shimano products, these are chocked full proprietary technology. Stopping power has been boosted for the R7000 range of shifters, thanks to SLR-EV. SLR-EV is a short-arm brake system, which employs two bearings and roller to offer increased efficiency, modulation, and stopping power. Three things that you can’t really get enough of when it comes to bike shifters. Combined with the BC-9000 brake cable and Shimano claims it will deliver 36% more braking power than the previous model. Ergonomics In Mind The shape of the shifters has been re-vamped and brought into line with the slimmer, more streamlined Ultegra R8000 series. Further attention has been paid to the ergonomics by increasing the reach adjustment to 15mm, offering more range for those with smaller hands. This attention to ergonomics should offer greater comfort on those longer rides. Features: Mechanical braking system, dual control lever Redesigned internal shifting unit Greater reach adjust range Easier access to inner shift cable
Hydraulic Disc Brake DUAL CONTROL LEVER (Small Hands Version) (11-speed) Features: Smaller lever size and new positioning improves ergonomics Dedicated lever control for riders with smaller hands Redesigned internal shifting unit Benifits Greater control in all conditions for riders with smaller hands Quick and intuitive rear shifting operation Same light shifting operation as ULTEGRA R8000 Lighter front shifting when paired with FD-R7000

Coming equipped with an adjustable lever reach, these shifters can be fine-tuned to perfectly match your hand size, riding style and the terrain conditions. Shimano has also ensured that both shifting and braking can be controlled from each lever, which frees up valuable handlebar space. Technologies: Optislick: OPTISLICK cables feature a minimal and uniform electrically coated layer that improves cable routing efficiency and provides excellent corrosion resistance. 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 SERVOWAVE mechanism is adopted to provide quick contact of shoe to rim and longer stroke from the initial braking effect for better control. SLR is the essential factor in the SHIMANO dual-pivot caliper that deliver more braking power than conventional side-pulls. 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 probably more critical to the higher standard performance than the added gearing. The shift internals borrow the robustness from our MTB technology and are 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. SP41: With OT-SP41 the entire length of the outer casing is pre-lubricated with a special silicone grease for quick and precise shifting performance. OT-SP41 maximally reduces the inner cable friction to provide quick response to operations and easy/effortless shifting. Moreover, power loss due to delay in shifting and fatigue by shifting especially when you ride on the terrain with many ups and downs as well as a long distance is also reduced. 8 color options are also available for outer casing to meet many requests. Reach Adjust: Brake lever is equipped with a reach adjust mechanism. The distance from handlebar grip to lever can be adjusted to suit any hand size, type of riding and individual rider preferences.

The understated black finish makes it look fast and a perfect match for any machine.“SRAM call this 'True 22' because you can cross chain with their system - you can run the chain on the larger chainring and the largest sprocket, and the smaller chainring and the smallest sprocket...whereas Shimano and Campagnolo tell you specifically not to do this.” - Road CCFeatures:Incredibly light weight at the bars, improving handling and control, at 307 gramsErgoFit textured body improves grip and finger wrap with reduced diameter, providing better control, and a better transition to the barIndividual Reach Adjust of brake and shift lever, now easier to access and uses a standard hex key, puts the controls exactly where you want themLarger ErgoBlade lever improves shifting from the dropsDoubleTap technology delivers both shifts from the single leverZeroLoss shifting, shifts engage immediatelyNew clamp allows better fit and adjustment for modern carbon and ergo barsWeight: 307g (pair)Speeds: 2 (Front) & 11 (Rear)Compatibility: SRAM RED 22 & Force 22 Yaw Front Derailleurs, Exact Actuation Rear DerailleursTechnology Highlight(s): DoubleTap, ErgoDynamics, ZeroLossMaterial: Carbon Brake Lever, Aluminum Shift Lever, Textured Hood CoversDoubleTap: DoubleTap technology makes the leap to the flatbar 9 and 10-speed bikes, delivering smooth up and down shifts are lightning fast.
