Braking with one finger is now possible. We have redesigned the architecture of the cockpits and levers to accommodate all hand sizes and provide a powerful, smooth, easy-to-access brake from any position on the handlebars. With independent adjustments for protection and point of contact, you can customize your setup to avoid pinching your fingers or touching the handlebars with the levers, regardless of configuration. The improved grip comfort around the cockpits reduces fatigue on long rides, and the bonus buttons allow you to shift or control ANT+ devices with your thumbs. The brake caliper is not only stiffer but also lighter, featuring a phenomenal gap between the brake pads for frictionless operation. All of this results in an 83 g weight savings for the brake/shifter system.
