Thanks to Shimano's production of among the best hydraulic disc brakes on the market – quality, reliability and performance are guaranteed. These brakes feature a precise braking feel, which enables you to brake later when coming into corners to help maintain speed more efficiently. These disc brakes perform at optimum level regardless of the weather conditions and thanks to the optimised design, they dissipate heat superbly to ensure that even during the longest, brake demanding descents, you will have exceptional braking performance the whole way home.
To compliment the excellent bike design and engineering achievement from De Rosa and the exceptional Shimano drivetrain, the Idol R8020 has been equipped with a fantastic finishing kit. De Rosa has chosen a combination of Deda Zero and Prologo components to enhance control and comfort. Speed and efficiency are essential when out on the road, and to ensure the best power-transfer this bike rolls on the Fulcrum Racing 500 wheels. These wheels, when combined with the Continental Grand Sport Race tyres will ensure excellent rolling performance and grip and stability in all road riding situations regardless of terrain or weather.
