SHIMANO 105 FD-R7150 Di2 Front Derailleur Double/12-Speed

SHIMANO 105 Di2 is here!

The proven 105 road bike series has its first electronic double-speed front derailleur for precise and coordinated chainring shifting with the FD-R7150. Thanks to the digital precision of the electronic shifting and its software-controlled communication between the front derailleur and rear derailleur, the SHIMANO 105 front derailleur offers an excellent shifting experience.

Experience the ease of electronic shifting, without lever forces or mechanical sources of error. A light click is all it takes for the electronic servomotor to start moving with absolute precision. In addition, shifting at the rear no longer requires re-trimming at the front derailleur to prevent the chain from dragging. Shifter assignments can be customised and front and rear derailleur can be synchronised in different modes. Define the gears at which the front derailleur automatically shifts, or let the rear derailleur make compensating shifts as soon as you operate the front derailleur. Thanks to integrated Bluetooth and ANT+ connectivity of a compatible Di2 rear derailleur as a master unit, you can conveniently adjust all settings with your smartphone and the SHIMANO E-Tube app. Or you can quickly change modes at the touch of a button on the rear derailleur, where you can also read the battery status.

Tackle even the steepest climbs thanks to the reliable gear range: In combination with a matching SHIMANO double-speed chainring with up to 52 teeth, the FD-R7150 front derailleur, together with the rear derailleur of the same name, allows you to master merciless mountain stages. Reliable and crisp gear shifts are ensured by the latest generation of Di2 technology, which together with a compatible brake/shift lever transmits the shifting commands wirelessly to the front and rear derailleur. That means you only need cables to connect to the battery, which can be charged directly on the rear derailleur via a charging port. However, those who prefer wired connections can continue to connect the components with cables.

With the R7150 series, SHIMANO is also giving the 105 groupset its 24 gears as well as integration into the electronic Di2 system – raising its best-selling road bike shifting group to the next level for its 40th anniversary. Electronic shifting is finally reaching the masses, as are the advantages of a double/12-speed shifting system.
