The Shimano ST-R8020 Ultegra STI Lever is a precision-engineered lever with hydraulic disc brakes, to give you control, modulation and power with minimal effort in every riding condition. Shift cables are routed under the bar tape: re-development and positioning of the internal mechanism in combination with Polymer coated cables have made this possible. This provides faster, lighter and smoother shifting. Vivid indexing provides a constant amount of shift lever force across all 11 sprockets.
