Shimano Ultegra ST-R8070 road control levers Di2 2x11 pair for hydraulic brakes
In addition to the benefits of the ST-R8050, the ST-R8070 offers greater rider control in all conditions, due to the hydraulic disc brake. With its minimized bracket size, the ST-R8070 feels great on the palms and improves the ergonomics.
Everything you need to make your ride distinctively yours: Shimano Ultegra Di2 2x11-speed STI Dual Contral ST-R8070 Set for Hydraulic Disc Brakes
The new Di2 lever can operate with the recently released full or semi Synchronized Shifting function (with the BT-BN110 battery), giving riders the option to make automatic shifts from the front (full) or rear (semi) derailleurs. This means that you could set, for example, both left shifters to move up through the drivetrain and both right shifters to move down through the drivetrain. As well as this the shifters have more defined click feeling to offer quick and precise shifting with gloves. Following the design of the 'secret' Dura-Ace Di2 shifter buttons, the new Ultegra ST-R8070 hydraulic Di2 and ST-R8050 rim brake Di2 levers also include the top-of-the-hoods buttons for remote shifting, which can be programmed to shift gear or to control ancillary devices such as compatible computers or lights. All shift levers or buttons can also operate multi-shift which, like the top button and Synchronized Shift features, are customisable in the E-TUBE app for phones, tablets or PCs. The app not only allows you to customize functions and operations as you please, but also allows you to keep all units up-to-date with the latest firmware and run error checks to pinpoint and solve abnormalities.

Synchro-Shift
Two SHIMANO Synchronized Shift modes will be available:
- Full SHIMANO Synchronized Shift: the front derailleur reacts based on the rear derailleur’s shift action. This essentially means that, when activated, there is no need for two separate shifters to control front and rear derailleurs, the two buttons on one shifter will control both derailleurs.
- Semi SHIMANO Synchronized Shift mode: the rear derailleur reacts based on the front derailleur’s shift action, shifting to the next most appropriate rear gear when the rider makes a front shift.
