Questions & Answers

Is STI compatible with each other?

Yes, it is compatible with STI

Are you referring to the dual pivot brake caliper option (and not the direct mount or rear seat stay mounting)? My sincere thanks go out to ?

A single bolt mount is used to attach them to the rear seat stay. Their mountings stand out when compared to the original 105's, but they are the same size and design.

Could there be a role for the black ones as well? Is there a wheel for each wheel?

A pair comes with a black front wheel and a black rear wheel.

Selected User Reviews For SHIMANO 105 Caliper Road Bicycle Brake Set - BR-R7000

The brake calipers are excellent
5/5

The new calipers are an upgrade over the previous ones. My original OEM Shimano calipers were replaced with 105's, since they were too thin for my riding. That's an improvement of 100 %! As they are center mounted calipers, these brakes also have center action, which means that you have consistent braking on both the left and right side of the brake track. As a result, the braking system is more powerful, and the pads wear evenly. As a result, the brake levers on 105 STI shifters are easier to feather when braking. Since I have had them paired with Swiss Stop black brake pads for carbon wheels, the stopping power that I have gained This is a very clean and modern looking design. It is also important to note that there is a substantial amount of tire clearance, which means there are many options for larger tires. There is a Specialized S-series bike on my bike at the moment It works with 26c road tires on both the front and rear wheel with the calipers as far as clearance goes.

I really appreciate the At 27 mph, I crashed my bike and went flying sideways
5/5

I was thrown forward and my front Axis 1 broke. On my Specialized Roubaix, I had a bent and damaged 0 brake due to a heavy impact It was easy to install the new part because of its high quality, decent price, and great fit. I always trusted 105 for replacement parts. Due to an injury I have not test ridden the bike yet, however when testing it out after installation, I feel much more comfortable and I am finding the bike much easier to handle than the I have never been disappointed by the 105 series from Shimano, so I recommend this brake for anybody looking to replace or upgrade lower tier.

What are discs good for? This is incredible
5/5

use incomplete Shimano groups with cheap Tektro brakes or equivalents. Shimano brakes are usually replaced with Tektro brakes or something similar. I had been using Tektro brakes on my 105-inch bike for a couple of years now and I am tired As my Fuji is equipped with 105 brakes, I decided to splurge and purchase them. I'm so glad you said that! Let's talk about the night and the stars It's the end of the day now. The world has never seen anything like it. Not just a little better, but a Hydraulic discs are fitted to my winter bike, and while they don't have quite that much power as those, they are not far behind! Definitely worth the money!.

My previous brakes were mediocre, but these have been a huge upgrade
5/5

You are getting the real deal here. Brake power is superb, as is the quality of the material. This caliper is a huge improvement over my Tektro ones. The ability to go down steeper slopes with far more confidence. My opinion is that it was worth the money.
