Brand: Shimano

Model: BR-R650

Type: Owner's manual

Shimano BR-R650 is a high-performance caliper brake designed for road bikes. It features a dual-pivot design for increased braking power and modulation, and adjustable toe-in for fine-tuning the brake's feel. The BR-R650 is also compatible with Shimano's Center Lock rotor system, making it easy to upgrade to a more powerful braking setup.
