Shimano Ultegra ST-R8025 shift-brake lever
The STI lever from the Ultegra R8000 series in a compact design for smaller hands.
With the STI Disc shift-brake lever ST-R8025, Shimano introduces a very compact shift-brake lever for hydraulic disc brakes and mechanical shifting systems, marking another milestone in the development of hydraulic disc brake systems for road bikes. These disc brake levers are based on Ultegra STI technology and are compatible with Shimano’s mechanical Dura-Ace 9000, Ultegra 6800 and 105 5800 11-speed groupsets. Shimano’s engineers have succeeded in integrating a mineral oil cylinder, including the complete braking system, into these mechanical shift-and-brake levers, which remain very compact. The brake levers are made from multi-layer composite. This technology guarantees maximum stiffness, durability and a lightweight design. Thanks to the improved positioning of the brake cable, a smooth braking action is achieved, resulting in optimised control in extreme conditions. The Dual Control shift and brake levers can be optimally adjusted to the rider via a grip width adjustment and are also very well suited to riders with small hands. Shifting is significantly faster with the new shift levers. This is achieved through a 20 per cent shorter cable. The grips feature an ergonomic design for greater comfort – even over long distances.
