The BR-R9270 Dura-Ace calipers are a one-piece Mono-Body design. Compared to the Ultegra version, this saves over 20 grams of weight at the rear and front and increases the stiffness even more. The brake pads have more free space than in the previous model, which prevents grinding of the brake rotor and reduces noise. The braking power of the two plastic pistons is tuned for competition use. In addition, the BR-R9270 earns points with a simple bleed process thanks to One Way Bleeding technology.
On the encoder units, both the brake levers and the grip bodies are made of carbon, which saves about 20 grams of weight per side compared to the Ultegra model. The ST-R9270 calipers are each powered by a CR1632 button cell battery, which lasts at least 1.5 years and that you can replace on your own. They communicate via a wireless protocol with the rear derailleur, which in turn is wired to the battery and indirectly to the front derailleur. Not only do you benefit from lightning-fast gear shifting and a tidy cockpit, but installation is also much easier without cables. Alternatively, you can also use the Dual Control levers fully wired. The ergonomics have been further optimised compared to previous models, and allow for a very comfortable grip. It is also possible to communicate with the third-party device via special buttons, mediated via the rear derailleur as a wireless unit. In terms of braking performance, these Dura-Ace STIs go one step further than before: thanks to Servo Wave technology, the full braking power is available to you more quickly, but it can also be better dosed at the same time. In addition to the grip width, you can also adjust the empty travel, both using a 2 mm hex tool. With the help of the completely revised funnel (not included), even the bleed process is no problem.
The Dura-Ace disc brake set comes with brake hoses and with Ice-Tech resin pads, which ensure particularly good heat dissipation due to their cooling fins. However, you can also ride with it using conventional pads.

Technology:
STI Dual Control
Shimano Total Integration (STI) means the combination of braking and shifting functions in one lever, which increases safety when riding. By refining the technology, it became possible to make shifting so smooth at the front and rear that they can be triggered with just one finger. Shimano calls such levers Dual Control Levers (DCL).
Digital Integrated Intelligence (Di2)
Di2 systems are the electronic shifting systems from Shimano. They are based on the SEIS, the Shimano Electronic Intelligent System, which takes over the index shifting function from the mechanical components, only via power cables or radio signals and not via a Bowden cable. Shifting is done by simply pressing a button. This has the advantage that no great effort is required, your concentration on the ride is not disturbed and operation is easy even with cold hands. In addition, the electronic gear changes are very fast and highly precise. There is also no risk of a defective circuit due to dirty cables or other problems. You can adjust individual settings via the E-Tube Project, such as adjusting the shifting speed, the number of shifting operations per button press or the Synchro or Semi-Synchro shifting function. Shimano offers an app for this purpose. Gear maintenance and firmware updates are also done via E-Tube, with the bike connected to a PC running the appropriate E-Tube software for more extensive workshop work.
Semi-wireless
The Shimano Di2 12-speed road groupsets in the disc brake version work semi-wirelessly: at the crucial point, namely the interaction between STIs and rear derailleur, the cable is dispensed with, which makes for a tidy cockpit and considerably simplifies assembly. The wireless protocol is extremely fast and reliable, so that the shifting speed reaches a new level – with consistently high precision. Attention was also paid to keeping power consumption as low as possible. Cables are only used between the battery and the rear derailleur and between the battery and the front derailleur. These are thinner than the previous models and easier to lay. Shimano relies on a central battery located in the seatpost. This increases safety and ensures an uncomplicated charging process via the rear derailleur. Once fully charged, the circuit can be ridden for approx. 1000 km. The components are paired together via the E-Tube platform.
Servo Wave
Shimano Servo Wave technology optimises the travel of your brake levers. During the braking process, the brake pads are guided quickly to the brake rotor with very short lever travel. The greater part of the lever travel is reserved for the actual braking force. In this way, you can apply your braking power in a more targeted manner and use it more effectively.
One Way Bleeding
One Way Bleeding is a technique used on Shimano calipers that facilitates brake bleeding. The hose routing has been optimised so that no air bubbles remain in the brake calliper. In combination with the funnel, the brake can be bled cleanly and easily.
