TECHNOLOGIES

Dual Pivot

Dual Pivot technology results in weight-saving, compact and robust brakes. Especially the brakes of Dura Ace, Ultegra, 105 and Sora now offer maximum torsional stiffness and highest load capacity with minimal tolerances.

SLR-EV

SLR-EV is a revised SLR with symmetrical dual pivot side-pull brakes. A short-arm brake design uses two bearings and a roller to achieve greater efficiency in the articulation area and provide superior metering and power under braking.
