Shimano Tiagra BR-4700 is a Dual Pivot front brake caliper designed for road and fitness bicycles, offering an excellent balance of braking performance, low weight and structural rigidity. Featuring NEW SUPER SLR Dual Pivot technology, it delivers smooth, precise braking control for both everyday riding and demanding training sessions.
