Shimano STI ST-U6030 Silver Edition Shifter

CUES Polished Silver Edition
Celebrating Shimano’s Heritage of Metalworking Excellence

The proven performance of the CUES components combined with classic aesthetics. Shimano equips selected components suitable for bikes with drop bars with a stunning finish in a polished silver color theme. This pays homage to Shimano's century-long tradition in metalworking and not only combines form and function, but also expands the portfolio for everyday use on the road or in Gravel sports. In addition to reliability, durability and smooth drive performance, the series impresses with ergonomics, comfort, versatility – and now also with an unmistakable look.

Shimano CUES – Keeps You Moving

The highlight for all those who like to be active. Consistently developed for comfortable as well as safe movement and created with the aim of offering more versatility for the most diverse types of bikes. The experience-oriented CUES series combines incredibly smooth and stress-free shifting behavior with durability suitable for E-Bike use and up to three times greater longevity thanks to LinkGlide technology. With the U6030 components, Shimano is expanding the CUES family to make it easier for riders to get started in road bike and gravel sport.

Shimano CUES shift/brake set consisting of the ST-U6030 lever for safe handling and the hydraulic BR-U6030 disc brake caliper for constant braking power. Smooth and simple maintenance is ensured by the tried and tested One Way Bleeding system and the Easy Hose Joint System, which makes brake hose replacement considerably easier.

Shimano CUES ST-U6030 shift/brake lever
The brake/shift lever for mechanical 2-speed or 10/11-speed drivetrain systems combines the advanced features of the Shimano 105 series with the reliable performance of hydraulic disc brakes and the smooth and intuitive shifting behavior for which the CUES components are known. Its revised design with an improved lever position and a more ergonomic grip design is the result of intensive research into different hand shapes. The optimized and adjustable reach allows riders with very different hand sizes comfortable access to the lever and offers correspondingly more control.

Shimano CUES BR-U6030 disc brake caliper
The hydraulic Flatmount brake caliper of the Shimano CUES series was specifically developed for a brake disc diameter of 160 mm. This is accompanied by an integrated design that makes an additional adapter superfluous. With its slim and lightweight 2-piston construction, the BR-U6030 brake caliper ensures reliable braking performance in all conditions.
