Setup, Compatibility & Care
This kit is strictly intended for 12-speed Di2 drivetrains. Ensure your frame is equipped with flat-mount brake interfaces, as the BR-R7170 calipers are not compatible with post-mount standards. Setup requires careful bleeding of the hydraulic system using standard mineral oil procedures. Since the kit includes a 1000mm brake hose, verify your frame's internal routing requirements before shortening the lines. For maintenance, regularly inspect the resin brake pads for wear—especially if you ride in wet or gritty conditions—and keep the lever hoods clean to preserve the grip texture. Always replace the CR1632 batteries before they are fully depleted to avoid shifting failures on the road.
