Shimano Ultegra BR-R8010 Rear Direct Mount Brake Info
Direct mount brakes exist for one reason: to close the gap between the brake caliper and the frame, reducing flex and improving braking precision. The Shimano Ultegra BR-R8010 Rear Direct Mount Brake does exactly that — a 160g aluminum caliper designed for aero road frames and seatstay-mounted direct mount positions, with arm geometry that keeps the profile narrow without sacrificing tire clearance.
The BR-R8010 accepts tires up to 28mm wide and is compatible with rim widths between 20.8mm and 28mm, so you're not forced to run narrow rubber to make the setup work. The anodized finish holds up to regular use, and at 51mm brake arm length, the caliper sits firmly in Ultegra territory — reliable, consistent stopping power that matches well with the rest of a road groupset build.
