The Shimano Ultegra Di2 FD-R8150 2 x 12-speed front derailleur incorporate these new cockpit functions. The electronic front derailleur is compact and designed to protect the shifting operation in the event of a crash.

Great speed means great responsibility. That's why, faced with the task of making the new Ultegra groupset even faster, Shimano decided to take a holistic and 100% performance-focused approach. Shimano's new 12-speed road groupset delivers unparalleled control and comfort anytime, anywhere - whether you're competing in an amateur race, chasing your personal best, or out for a social ride. That is "Science of Speed". And it's what sets SHIMANO apart from the rest.The Ultegra R8150 front derailleur is more compact than ever and a genuine power unit. The front derailleur switches perfectly seamlessly between the chainrings and performs its shifting operations with digital precision in all conditions. In addition, the front has been reduced, thus optimising aerodynamics.

TECHNOLOGIES

• The SEIS innovative shift technology is still based on the SHIMANO INDEX SYSTEM (SIS) that has proved its superior gear changing characteristics over the years. The big difference is that in this case, the shifting action is provided for by electronics instead of mechanics. This electronic shifting system has been extensively tested over past two years by several professional riders in all conditions possible, such as rain, mud, low temperatures, cobble stone roads and combinations of all of these at the same time. Shifting is executed by simply pressing the button. No power is needed to shift, which gives important advantages since it is easier now to always keep a tight grip on the handlebar and to keep your concentration on riding instead on shifting. The shift system allows accurate and effortless shifting in difficult circumstances like when you have cold hands or when you are completely exhausted. Furthermore, the shifting performance will never be affected by contaminated or stretched cables since the shifting signal is transferred electronically. The operating buttons work similarly to mechanical Dual Control Levers so you don’t need to re-program your mind for a new system.
