Shimano 105 Brake Caliper BR-R7010-RS Rear-Seat Stay Mount Type

SHIMANO 105- Rear Seat Stay Mount - Rear Brake Caliper - SLR-EV - Rim Brake

The new 105 R7000 components are not only visually oriented towards their big siblings Dura Ace R9100 and Ultegra R8000, but also from a technical point of view some features of the top groups have been adopted. With a variety of translation options and the choice between rim and disc brakes, it is just as suitable for everyday drivers as for racing use.

The BR-R7010 brake is characterized by its balance in terms of stiffness, weight and braking power. The brakes are connected to the frame with 2 screws on the brake arms via the direct mount brake mountings. This design reduces the number of moving parts on the brake. This makes the response more sensitive and the braking power increases. With a spread between the thighs to 51 millimeters, the brake is suitable for 28-millimeter-wide rims and 28C tires.

The brakes are equipped with R55C4 brake shoes with aluminum alloy padding.

Braking Performance & Control

The Shimano BR-R7010-RS brake caliper is engineered to provide strong and consistent braking with minimal effort. The advanced SLR-EV dual pivot mechanism improves power transmission from the brake lever to the caliper arms. This design increases braking efficiency while maintaining a smooth and light lever feel.

The direct mount structure uses two mounting points on the frame, which improves stiffness and reduces flex under heavy braking. This results in better modulation and predictable stopping power, allowing riders to maintain full control during fast descents or sudden stops. The included Shimano R55C4 brake shoes provide excellent grip on aluminium rims and deliver reliable braking performance in various road conditions.
