These Ultegra-level Dual Control levers provide a short stroke for effortless gear shifting and braking. Their internal mechanism is robust and performs with the same efficiency as Shimano's Dura-Ace STI levers. Ergonomic innovation is probably more critical to the higher standard of the new 10-speed S.T.I. levers than the added gearing. The narrower cradle-style perch welcomes the high-on-the-hood riding style and accommodates all sizes of hands. The shift internals borrows the robustness from Shimano's MTB technology which results in a smooth and effortless shift.
Tiagra 4700 runs on a 10-speed drivetrain operated by improved ergonomic shift/brake levers (STI). The slim and compact bracket grip offers easy reach to the brake/shift lever from the hood position and a comfortable lever feeling for a wide range of riders. Shifting is accurate and virtually effortless. For the first time, Tiagra supports internal cable routing. This gives the clean and professional look normally reserved for higher end groupsets. The new Tiagra range offers a great balance of performance and consistency. The range remains dependable and durable, requiring little maintenance.
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.
The updated ergonomic design of the Shimano Ultegra ST-R8070 Di2 11 Speed STI Road Levers clearly separates the shift buttons so you can shift easily and efficiently, even in the depths of winter when you're wearing thick gloves. Designed for Hydraulic Brakes The ST-R8070 dual control lever is designed specifically for use with hydraulic brakes for excellent rider feel and control in all conditions. Multi-Shift Each switch on the Shimano Ultegra ST-R8070 can be used to multi-shift. Additionally, the top hood buttons can be programmed and customised through the Shimano E-Tube app or PC software to control third-party devices. Technologies: Di2: The power and precision of Di2 is unmatched. It enables beautifully smooth shifting both front and rear. The lack of maintenance and adjustment is impressive: once you’ve customised your Di2 to shift to your preferences, it will continue to do so endlessly. E-Tube: Change all Di2 functions and operations through the shifter buttons behind the brake levers, the top hood buttons or satellite buttons for TT/Triathlon, sprinting and climbing. You can easily customise shift speed, multi-shift options and Synchro Shift. You can also customise the top hood buttons to control third party-devices, for example to scroll through bike computer menus. The functionality on third-party computers also allows you to display Di2 system information, such as battery level and the gear you’re in.
The electronic shifters enable changing between gears at the click of a button when in the aero position. Having the integrated brake levers in the same position at the front of the TT bars provides the rider with total racing confidence and supreme performance Pure Performance The levers are made from carbon and aluminium so they are much lighter than traditional STI levers and have been designed to enhance performance. The weight is reduced and performance increased even further due to there being no mechanical cables to control the gearing. As these levers use Di2 technology, they function by using lightweight electrical cables to effortlessly command your derailleurs to shift up and down gears. Enhanced Rider Customisation The positioning of the shift buttons and the ergonomics of the brake lever blades allows you to both brake and shift at the same time. This means you can brake late into tight corners, change gear instantly and accelerate back to your regular speed without needing to change your aerodynamic saddle positioning. The brake levers also have tuneable reach adjusters to enhance rider customisation, so you can truly feel at one with your bike.
