Description
SHIMANO Ultegra Di2 Shift- | Brake lever ST-R8170 for disc brake | individually
With the components of the 8100 Ultegra series, Shimano offers you an excellent price-performance ratio. The years of experience of the Japanese can be seen in every detail. Regardless of functionality, durability or weight, top values are achieved everywhere.
With this top group, Shimano is revolutionizing the Di2 components. From now on, the switching commands are passed on without wiring. The wireless technology with the transmission protocol developed exclusively for this guarantees you the fastest gear changes that are currently possible in the bicycle sector. A push of a button and the gears are quickly and reliably engaged. The precise pressure point of the levers ensures that the gear changes are really only triggered when the driver consciously shifts. Accidental operation is not to be feared.
The wireless chip also scores with low energy consumption. The lifespan of the CR1632 button cell is over 1.5 years. This system can be fully personalized with the Shimano E-Tube app. The switching logic is also adapted to the driver's preferences. Among other things, the switching speed can be set, a fully or semi-synchronous switching mode selected and the program buttons on the lever assigned certain functions.
When braking, the SERVO WAVE technology gives you optimal control of your bike at all times. This offers controllability and sufficient power that is second to none.
But not only the inner values are convincing. The ergonomics have also been significantly improved. The recessed grip is better shaped and the rounded brake levers are safe under the fingers even on long descents. In addition, the reach can be individually adjusted.
