Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility
This part is exclusively compatible with the Shimano ST-R9120 left-hand hydraulic shift/brake lever. It is not interchangeable with other Dura-Ace generations or mechanical-only shift levers. Verify your model number, which is printed on the underside of your current shifter hood or body, before attempting installation.
Installation Steps
- Peel back or remove the rubber shifter hood to expose the name plate area.
- Use a precision screwdriver to gently unscrew the original fixing screw.
- Carefully pry the old name plate off the shifter body.
- Align the new name plate with the mounting points.
- Insert the new fixing screw and tighten until firm—do not overtighten as the plastic body can strip easily.
- Reposition the shifter hood over the name plate.
Care
Keep the shifter area clean by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth after rides to prevent sweat or road grit from accumulating under the name plate edges.
