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.
Ready for use with V-brakes and cable-operated disc brakes, the Shimano Deore V-Brake levers bring you precise stopping power and can be used on most bikes that use flat handlebars. Tech Tip: Although your flat handlebars may be 31.8mm or 35mm at the central stem clamping area, most flat bars have a standard 22.2mm diameter at the ends of the bars. These brake levers, as with most on the market, are designed for bars with this standard 22.2mm measurement at the end of the bars.

Part of the Gravita series, designed to take you down the mountain, fast and in control, the Gravita Versor Flat Pedal MTB Shoes are a versatile mountain bike shoe that's at home on a trail centre away day or enjoying the exhilaration of big-mountain lift-assisted downhill laps. X6 Outsole. Stay in Control. The heart of the Gravita Versor is the X6 Outsole. It's this that keeps you confidently on the pedals and is crucial for reacting quickly, aggressively and nimbly to changing terrain and trail features. The stickiest Vibram® Megagrip rubber compound is formed into a zonal lug pattern. Low profile mid-foot tread offers an optimal mechanical interface with pedal pins for unshakeable pedal grip. You'll also enjoy easy foot transitions on and off the pedals. Meanwhile, the heel and toes feature a deeper tread for greater traction when hiking back up the hill. Flex is also tuned for the flat pedal rider. The supple sole is able to flex over the pedal, improving grip while a widened bottom spreads pressure and offers plenty of contact with wide platform pedals. Ergonomic and Durable Fizik's Versor design provides a supportive and comfortable fit, cradling the foot and working with the ergonomic lace-up closure to give the perfect fit every time you ride. While riding aggressively demands toughness the team at Fizik didn't want to add unnecessary weight or bulk. To this end, they turned to a hardwearing ripstop woven fabric for the upper, providing resistance to tearing and ripping and yet remaining remarkably light. It also offers a snug and supportive fit, rather than the bulky look and sloppy fit of many typical gravity shoes. Elsewhere, a PU-laminated toecap and side reinforcements provide protection from wear and tear and ward off rocks and roots - just what you need when you're foot out and flat out.
Part of the Gravita series, designed to take you down the mountain, fast and in control, the Gravita Versor Clip MTB Shoes are a versatile mountain bike shoe that's at home on a trail centre away day or enjoying the exhilaration of big-mountain lift-assisted downhill laps. X6 Outsole. Clip in and Stay in Control. The heart of the Gravita Versor shoe is the X6 Outsole. It's this that keeps you confidently on the pedals and is crucial for reacting quickly, aggressively and nimbly to changing terrain and trail features. For the clipped version of the Gravita Versor, Fizik has utilised a Vibram tread compound. This isn't quite as sticky as that found on the flat-pedal shoe but makes for a smoother engagement and disengagement from clip-in pedals. The rubber compound is formed into a zonal lug pattern. Low profile mid-foot tread offers an optimal mechanical interface with pedal bodies, keeping you planted even if you don't immediately find your clip in point. Meanwhile, the heel and toes feature a deeper tread for greater traction when hiking back up the hill. Flex is also tuned for the clip-in rider. The stiffness gets a boost, rated 5 out of 10 on the Fizik stiffness scale, optimising power transfer and improving pedalling efficiency. An extended cleat track also allows you to run cleats further back. This gives a flat-pedal feel as you can drop heels for improved stability and control on descents. Ergonomic and Durable Fizik's Versor design provides a supportive and comfortable fit, cradling the foot and working with the ergonomic lace-up closure to give the perfect fit every time you ride.
