The Shimano Tiagra BL-4700 left brake lever embodies versatility and performance for flat-bar road bikes and fitness bikes. Designed to integrate seamlessly with SL-4700 shifters, it offers extended compatibility with V-Brakes, New Super SLR road calipers, mechanical road disc brakes and cantilevers. Thanks to New Super SLR technology and the SERVOWAVE mechanism, this lever combines responsiveness, exceptional modulation and refined ergonomics.
Technical Highlights
- Universal compatibility: V-Brake, New Super SLR road caliper, mechanical road disc brake and cantilever — the ideal solution for all types of flat bar road setups.
- New Super SLR technology: Reduced-friction mechanism integrated into the caliper, lever and cable for immediate response and precise braking power modulation.
- SERVOWAVE mechanism: Rapid pad contact with the rim or disc, followed by extended lever stroke for progressive and controlled braking.
- Adjustable reach adjustment: Tool-based adjustment to adapt lever-grip distance to all hand sizes and riding preferences.
- Tool-free cable tension adjustment: Quick adjustments during rides to compensate for pad or lining wear.
- Aluminum construction: Aluminum body and lever for proven durability and controlled weight (approximately 89 g).
Ergonomics and Integration
Developed to work in perfect synergy with Tiagra shifters SL-4700 (double) and SL-4703 (triple), the BL-4700 forms a coherent and high-performance cockpit. Its ergonomic 2.5-finger lever profile ensures comfortable grip and optimal control, whether in the city, touring or on sporty roads. The closed clamp guarantees solid mounting on 22.2 mm diameter handlebars.
