Shimano BR-RS805 Flat-Mount Disc Brake Caliper Set + Resin Pads with Fins
The Shimano RS805 hydraulic disc brake caliper utilizes a sleek, Flat Mount design to suit road bike aesthetics.
The BR-RS805 calipers are compatible with Shimano's STI levers that have been designed for hydraulic disc braking. Shimano uses a mineral oil fluid system that is safe and easy to install, bleed and service. Bleeding is done via a one-way process and requires a simple bleed kit for service. The caliper body is machined from aluminum to be light, stiff, and strong. Steel fixing bolts hold it in place. The caliper was designed for use with IceTech/Shimano disc brake pads, including the finned options. Each caliper is shipped with the aluminum backplate/fin resin pads (L02A-R) that are optimal in dry weather and super quiet while producing excellent stopping power and a consistent feel at the STI lever. At around 145 grams per caliper, the system is lightweight as well.
