R8 Drop Bar Shifter 2x8
R-Series drop bar shifters are designed to make life easier. Upshifts and downshifts are handled by separate, discrete levers and the brake lever is completely fixed, meaning accidental shifts are a thing of the past. External shifter cable routing is easy to replace and avoids kinks in the housing. Add in comfy ergonomics and crisp shifting action, and you've got the best value in road shifters.
Features
- Compatible with Shimano 8 speed road derailleurs
- Externally routed shift cables
- Independent shift levers
- Left shifter for road double
- Replaceable hood cover and face plate
- Cold forged brake levers
You don't read a lot about 8-speed road bikes in the magazines, but this level of components make up a big part of the global market share and rack up an absurd number of miles every year. Maybe you're putting together a commuter bike, a training bike for bad weather, or you just want the simplicity of an 8-speed system. Either way, R8 is a smart choice for the full road bike experience without the pretense.
