Shimano Ultegra shares Dura-Ace's engineering lineage but has it's own unique identity, offering greatly enhanced feel and sleek design that's backed by a new level of performance. Ergonomically designed shifters mimic the style and shape of Dura-Ace, with smooth, nearly effortless action. A lighter, more rigid Hollowtech II crankset and stiffer front derailleur give crisper, more responsive front shifts. The Ultegra blends race-proven technology with ergonomic protection, for performance you can feel.
