Reviews over the

Shimano Ultegra R8000 & 105 R7000 Shifter Covers

The cap was easy to install and fits seamlessly to the shifter. Installation was very easy using a little soap and water. Only downside is that the cap does not go all the way over the shifter connection, so you have to run the ribbon over the clasp well tightly when mounting your handlebar tape to cover the iron rings/connection.

Pros & Cons

Exactly as expected.

Pros & Cons

I bought these covers as spares. Have 2 sets in stock now. Own 3 road bikes all still mechanical with rim brakes. at local road bike specialist almost no more parts available!!! Also bought at Mantel as spare 1 set of ultegra shiters 2 x rear derailleur and 1 x front derailleur

Fits just fine. Thanks to good description in one hit.

Pros & Cons

With good tips on YouTube (use alcohol disinfectant hand gel), you get the covers in place quite easily and without damage.

Pros & Cons

Getting the hoods over the shifters, in place, is hell. The feeling you get on the bike afterwards, though, is worth it! It really feels like you have new material under your hands again.

Takes some strength and effort to assemble but with results. Tip: put the hairdryer on and then apply some disinfectant hand gel to the inside (the alcohol eventually evaporates by itself). Takes a little fiddling but then it should work!
