  Product Description
Performance without compromise

Three key words have emerged as the theme for the DURA-ACE® system: Speed, Smooth and Strength. Speed and Smooth result in effortless shifting, improved braking operation, enhanced ergonomics and an attractive feeling and design. Strength is focused on the critical need for lightweight without sacrificing rigidity, durability or precision. "100% Power Transmission" is the goal pursued by the fusion of these three concepts. Ride Dura-Ace® to see why Lance has ridden to 7 Tour de France victories aboard Dura-Ace® components.

Ergonomic innovation is probably more critical to the higher standard of the new 10-speed S.T.I. levers than the added gearing. The narrower cradle-style perch welcomes the high-on-the-hood riding style and accommodates all sizes of hands. The shift internals borrow the robustness from our MTB technology which results in a smooth and effortless shift.

Shimano Dura-Ace ST-7801 Dual Control Levers Double features Optical Gear Display, newly designed mechanism, refined lever hood for improved ergonomics, and ergonomically improved shift stroke movement. Effortless shifting and short stroke shifting.

Dual Control Levers™
1. Shifts & brakes simultaneously and from a variety of hand positions.
Other shifters require a specific hand placement to execute a shift. Dual Control allows many different variations, including shifting from bar ends to complete a shift. This means that regardless of terrain, conditions, or maneuvers, a shift can be completed as desired. The option even remains for use of a thumb lever.

2. Adapts to YOUR hands and riding style. Lever pivots in two axis to obtain an optimal position in both angle and reach.
Position the brake lever (both angle and reach) in an optimal position for a wide variety of hand sizes, preferences, and riding styles. Of course trigger systems can be adjusted for angle and reach, however, the angle of the brake lever is dependent on the angle of the shifter. So, the trigger shifter position must first be set so that the triggers can be reached and then the brake lever must then be set at the best possible position that remains. The "shifter" on a Dual Control unit is adjustable for position as you adjust the "brake lever" for reach. This means a much more customized fit for a great variety of hand sizes. The added benefit of a lever that pivots in two axes, creating less potential for bent or broken brake lever blades in the event of contact with the ground, trees, etc.

3. More intuitive shifting is easier for users to learn and execute.
The function of the Dual Control levers, when combined with a Low Normal rear derailleur, is much more intuitive therefore, easier to explain to users. This is because you perform the same movement for both left and right levers for higher and lower gears.

4. Simple integration.
One clamp, one fixing bolt, one adjustment and less weight.
