Dual Control for Road
Ergonomic innovation is probably the key advancement of the latest Dura-Ace, Ultegra, 105, Tiagra and Sora component groups, and the Dual Control Levers are where you can really feel the benefits of Shimano innovation.
The narrower cradle-style perch welcomes the high-on-the-hoods racing style, and accomodates all sizes of hands and grips. The arced lever travel means no more reaching for the next gear. The shift internals borrow the robustness from our MTB technology and are so smooth and relaible that one finger shifts front and rear are possible. "It's so easy, I just rest high on the lever and shift my finger" is a comment that echoed throughout the pro circuit.
Indeed, the ease shifting the new Shimano Dual Control Levers simply has to be experienced to be understood.
