Shimano Ultegra ST-R8025 2×11-Speed Shifters

The ST-R8025 Dual Control Levers are a specialized ergonomic evolution of the acclaimed Ultegra R8000 series, specifically engineered for riders with smaller hands. While sharing the same high-performance mechanical shifting and hydraulic disc braking internals as the standard R8020, the R8025 features a distinctively modified lever blade shape. The lever is curved more aggressively toward the handlebar and features a dedicated reach-adjust mechanism that starts from a closer baseline. This unique geometry ensures that riders can maintain a secure grip on the hoods while still being able to comfortably and confidently reach the brake and shift paddles from the drops. For smaller-statured cyclists, women, or younger racers, the ST-R8025 provides the ultimate "pro-level" control without the ergonomic compromise.

Key Features

• Short-Reach Ergonomics: A more pronounced outward curve and closer-to-bar resting position designed specifically for smaller palms and shorter fingers.

• Refined Control: Improved leverage from the drops, allowing for powerful one-finger braking even with a smaller hand span.

• Mechanical Tactile Feel: Features the same crisp, 11-speed mechanical shifting internals as the R8020 for a reliable and organic gear-change experience.

• Professional Hydraulic Power: Integrated master cylinder provides industry-leading hydraulic disc modulation and stopping power in all weather conditions.

• Adjustable Reach: A dedicated adjustment screw allows for further fine-tuning of the lever's starting position to achieve a truly custom fit.
