Technologies:

• 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.
• Dual Control Lever (DCL): 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. The DURA-ACE/ULTEGRA/105 Dual Control Lever have an optimized structure with features that include the lighter weight pivot section in the near side of the shifting unit and the integral shifting cable for lighter steering. Its many component parts are made so compact and precise to achieve unprecedented high-speed performance.
• Freestroke: The distance from initial lever position to pad contact point can be adjusted to suit any hand size, type of riding and individual rider preferences.
• E-Tube: The E-TUBE platform’s “Plug & play” and D-FLY wireless connections make it easier than ever to check the system’s status, and apply customized settings to DI2 and SHIMANO STEPS components with a PC, tablet or smart phone.
