Description

Successors to the BR-6800, the front and rear calipers SHIMANO Ultegra BR-8000 calipers feature the dual-pivot design, SLR-EV system and friction-reducing twin pivot bearings for exceptional efficiency and control, with powerful braking and extreme precision.

Featuring a sleek design with compact arms, the BR-R8000 has greater clearance, making it compatible with larger tire sizes such as 28C. The stabilizer located between the axles reduces deformation and improves braking efficiency, offering a clear feeling of contact with a perfect balance between rigidity, weight and braking power.

Reviews

Very good stirrups

"Replacing my 2018 105 calipers. More biting yet progressive braking, coupled with Swiss stop pads."

— Thelordofobvious (5/5)

Power and design

"Efficient and powerful braking, well suited to carbon rims. Precise and easy to adjust."

— Dav72 (5/5)

Findings

"Easy to mount and position the wheels thanks to the caliper spreader".

— Herleaux (5/5)

Robustness and braking quality

"Robustness and braking quality - Still not widely used with containment"

— Phlnt72 (5/5)

the best brake pads

"Perfect replacement for my previous-generation ultegras that I wanted to use for another bike. These new ultegras are fluid under braking and the design is superb. I mounted them with rival Sram levers, which fit perfectly and brake perfectly. Still as light as ever, the best brake pads in the world".

— Momo38 (5/5)

Very Good

"Bought to replace the Ultegra calipers on my wife's bike, she thinks they're great, much softer than the old ones".

— Serge (5/5)

Brake pads

"Excellent quality of finish and braking ... ... ... ... ."

— Wieslaw69 (5/5)

Always better

"The R8000 series actually brakes better than the R6800 series, which braked very well indeed! And they're more aerodynamic: you can't feel it in my case (!!!) but you can tell."

— Anonymous (5/5)

Simple and efficient

"I liked the ease of assembly and the precise settings."

— Magnum (5/5)

Powerful braking, very good feel

"Powerful, easily proportioned braking. Light calipers, very good design. Easy to adjust"

— Pierre35 (5/5)
