Shimano Dura-Ace BR-R9170 Disc Brake Set with ST-R9170 Di2 - a new level in braking control

The Shimano Dura-Ace BR-R9170 disc brake set (VR+HR) with Di2 ST-R9170 shift/brake levers is a finely-tuned hydraulic-electric system for road biking applications, and raises braking safety to a new level. The flat mount brake calipers with ceramic pistons are sure to impress with integrated road bike characteristics, with one-way bleeding and highly reliable brake performance using Ice-Tech heat dissipation. The Dual Control Di2 lever offers a distinctive " click" mechanism for fast and intuitive shifting, and stands out with its ergonomic grip humps. The E-Tube Platform also unlocks countless customisation options.

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.

One Way Bleeding
One Way Bleeding is a technique used on Shimano calipers that facilitates brake bleeding. The hose routing has been optimised so that no air bubbles remain in the brake calliper. In combination with the funnel, the brake can be bled cleanly and easily.
