Shimano Ultegra BR-R8110-F Caliper Brake

No, this is a direct-mount brake, meaning it requires a frame and fork specifically designed with direct-mount bosses. It will not fit standard single-bolt rim brake frames.

The BR-R8110-F is designed to accommodate tires up to 28mm wide. While some riders may experiment with slightly wider tires depending on rim width and frame clearance, 28mm is the official manufacturer limit for optimal safety and performance.

Direct-mount brakes bolt directly to the frame or fork rather than using a single central pivot bolt. This creates a more rigid connection that reduces flex, resulting in a more responsive, solid feel at the lever and more consistent stopping power.

This specific model, the BR-R8110-F, is the front-mount version. It is designed specifically for the fork of your bicycle.

Yes, the caliper ships with Shimano's high-performance brake pads included, which are optimized for use with aluminum or carbon braking surfaces depending on your wheelset.
