Shimano Hydraulic Front Disc Brake 105 Di2 BR-R7170 with Right Dual Control Lever ST-R7170 12-Speed

LEVER
The ST-R7170 STI levers are not only characterised by their optimised ergonomics and even more precise dosing of the hydraulic disc brakes, but also impress above all with lightning-fast shifting processes, which are achieved not least through the Wireless functionality.

The wireless connection also offers another advantage: without electric cables, installation is easier and the cockpit appears tidier. Nevertheless, the shift/brake levers still offer a cable connection (EW-SD300) for the use of additional shifters in the drops or the top of the handlebar. For numerous customisation and configuration options, compatibility with the improved E-Tube Project app, which, like previous versions, allows you to adjust shift modes (Synchro-/Semi-Synchro-Shift, Multi-Shift), shift speed and button assignment on the fly.

To ensure that the braking performance is in no way inferior to the shifting functionality, the Ultegra Dual Control levers feature Servowave technology. With the help of an extended brake control range, this ensures excellent dosing that offers optimum comfort and control even in challenging conditions. Of course, for individual adjustment, the levers feature the option of reach and free stroke adjustment.

CALIPER
All around improved, the Shimano Ultegra BR-R7170 caliper offers optimised dosing, quieter braking performance and extremely simplified maintenance.

While a faster-gripping initial braking force always gives the feeling of full control, the 10 % increase in brake pad spacing allows for a significant reduction in noise during braking, despite a flatter overall construction.

To simplify maintenance, the hydraulic 2-piston brake caliper not only features the proven One-Way-Bleeding system, but also a separate arrangement of bleed nipple and opening screw. On the one hand, this minimises the risk of the bleed kit hose slipping off when opening or closing the system and, on the other hand, makes it unnecessary to dismantle the caliper from the frame for bleeding process.
