Shimano 105 ST-R7170 Hydraulic Di2 Levers, Hoses and BR-8170 Flat Mount Brake Calipers

shimanologo2.jpg

The disc brake for the 105 road bike groupset from Shimano consists of two BR-R7170 and two ST-R7170. These are flat-mount brake calipers for front and rear and electronic shift/brake levers that enable wireless 2-speed or 12-speed shifting and hydraulic braking. The Shimano 105 ST-R7170 Di2 Shift/Brake lever features Di2 electronic shifting for precise, intuitive gear changes to even more riders. The 105 BR-R7170 caliper features the Shimano Flat Mount System and its low-profile design that is ideal for road bikes.

With the BR-R7170 brake calipers, the brake pads have more free space than on the previous model, which prevents grinding of the brake rotor and reduces noise. The braking power of the two plastic pistons is tuned for competition use, but is just as suitable for leisure and training rides. In addition, the BR-R7170 earns points with a simple bleed process thanks to One Way Bleeding technology. The two-piece brake calipers are made of lightweight aluminum.

The ST-R7170 shift/brake levers are powered by a CR1632 button cell battery that lasts at least 1.5 years and that you can replace yourself. They communicate via a wireless protocol with the rear derailleur, which in turn is wired to the battery and indirectly to the front derailleur. Not only do you benefit from lightning-fast gear shifting and a tidy cockpit, but installation is also much easier without cables. Alternatively, you can also use the Dual Control levers fully wired. The ergonomics have been further optimized compared to previous models, and allow for a very comfortable grip. It is also possible to communicate wirelessly with a third-party device via special keys. In terms of braking performance, these Ultegra STIs go one step further than before: thanks to Servo Wave technology, full braking power is available to you more quickly, but it can also be better dosed at the same time. In addition to the grip width, you can also adjust the empty travel, both using a 2 mm hex tool. With the help of the completely revised funnel (not included), even the bleed process is no problem. The brake levers of the ST-R8170 are made of lightweight aluminum and the lever bodies are made of carbon, which saves additional weight.

The Ultegra disc brake set comes with brake hoses and Ice-Tech resin pads, which ensure particularly good heat dissipation thanks to their cooling fins. However, you can also ride with it using conventional pads.

Technology:

STI Dual Control
Shimano Total Integration (STI) means the combination of braking and shifting functions in one lever, which increases safety when riding. By refining the technology, it became possible to make shifting so smooth at the front and rear that they can be triggered with just one finger. Shimano calls such levers Dual Control Levers (DCL).

Digital Integrated Intelligence (Di2)
Di2 systems are the electronic shifting systems from Shimano. They are based on the SEIS, the Shimano Electronic Intelligent System, which takes over the index shifting function from the mechanical components, only via power cables or radio signals and not via a Bowden cable. Shifting is done by simply pressing a button. This has the advantage that no great effort is required, your concentration on the ride is not disturbed and operation is easy even with cold hands. In addition, the electronic gear changes are very fast and highly precise. There is also no risk of a defective circuit due to dirty cables or other problems. You can adjust individual settings via the E-Tube Project, such as adjusting the shifting speed, the number of shifting operations per button press or the Synchro or Semi-Synchro shifting function. Shimano offers an app for this purpose. Gear maintenance and firmware updates are also done via E-Tube, with the bike connected to a PC running the appropriate E-Tube software for more extensive workshop work.

Semi-wireless
The Shimano Di2 12-speed road groupsets in the disc brake version work semi-wirelessly: at the crucial point, namely the interaction between STIs and rear derailleur, the cable is dispensed with, which makes for a tidy cockpit and considerably simplifies assembly. The wireless protocol is extremely fast and reliable, so that the shifting speed reaches a new level - with consistently high precision. Attention was also paid to keeping power consumption as low as possible. Cables are only used between the battery and the rear derailleur and between the battery and the front derailleur. These are thinner than the previous models and easier to lay. Shimano relies on a central battery located in the seatpost. This increases safety and ensures an uncomplicated charging process via the rear derailleur. Once fully charged, the circuit can be ridden for approx. 1000 km. If desired for peace of mind or other reasons, you can install the groupsets in the conventional way. The components are paired together via the E-Tube platform.

Servo Wave
Servo Wave optimizes the leverage of your brake levers. During the braking process, the brake pads are guided quickly to the brake rotor with very short lever travel. The greater part of the lever travel is reserved for the actual braking force. This technology allows you to control your braking force more precisely and to apply it more effectively.

One-Way-Bleeding
One Way Bleeding is a technique used on the brake caliper that makes it easier to bleed the brake. The hose routing has been optimized so that no air bubbles remain in the brake caliper. In combination with the funnel, the brake can be bled cleanly and easily.
