1 - TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
THIS TECHNICAL MANUAL IS INTENDED FOR USE BY PROFESSIONAL MECHANICS.
Anyone who is not a qualified professional for bicycle assembly must not attempt to install and operate on the
components independently due to the risk of carrying out incorrect operations which could cause the components to
malfunction, resulting in accidents, physical injury or even death.
The actual product may differ from what is illustrated, as the specific purpose of these instructions is to explain the
procedures for using the component.
Info for professional mechanics: Although the User Manual that comes with the product is intended mainly for the end user, it is vital that pro-
fessional mechanics also read and understand it so that they are adequately prepared to explain the product to customers, making certain that
all care is taken to ensure its safe and proper use.

* In the case of frames with thru-axles, use a rear derailleur produced in 2017 or later - these are concave shaped, ensuring perfect clearance
between the rear derailleur and the frame.
Combinations other than those provided for in the above table could cause the drivetrain to malfunction and potentially be the
cause of accidents, physical injury or even death.

• Do not lodge the upper part of the command in the rectilinear section of the handlebar (Fig. 1 / Fig. 2).
• Lodge the command in the curved section measuring R = 60 - 75 mm with a diameter = 23.8 - 24.2 mm (including any ovalization) to gua-
rantee more effective fastening (Fig. 1/Fig. 2).

The cable routing illustrated in Figure 3 seriously compromises the drivetrain’s gear shift and derailing performance.
DO NOT USE HANDLEBAR BENDS WITH THIS KIND OF ROUTING.

• Fold back the rear of the hood (A - Fig. 1) to expose the
securing screw (B - Fig. 1).
• Loosen the bolt (B - Fig. 1) positioned in the top of the
body sufficiently to fit the clamp (C - Fig. 2) on the untaped
handlebar.
Make sure that the arrow on the band faces towards the
upper part of the control unit (C - Fig. 2).
• If the hood has been completely removed, moisten the
inside slightly with alcohol to facilitate installation on the
control unit.

• Position the Ergopower™ control in the curved area of
the handlebar and attempt to create a straight line if the
handlebar bend lets you (Fig. 3).

- The control unit must be correctly oriented to avoid affec-
ting bicycle aerodynamics (Fig. 4)
• Secure the control on to the handlebar by tightening the
screw (B - Fig. 1) to 10 Nm (89 in.lbs) using a torque wrench.

•Install the cable guide plate under the bottom bracket
shell, as follows:
- position the washer (A – Fig. 5) in the provided seat in the
cable guide plate.
- place the cable guide plate under the bottom bracket shell
and fix it by means of the provided screw (B – Fig. 5) with a
torque of 3÷4 Nm (27÷35 in.lbs).
Different plates can also give rise to a serious loss of per-
formance.

• The cable housings of the rear derailleur (Fig. 6) have a
diameter of 4.1 mm, while the brake cable housings (Fig.6)
have a diameter of 4,9 mm.
NOTE
Use only ‘maximum smoothness’ cables and sheaths with
these Ergopower commands.

• Depending on your frame, it may be necessary to cut the
rear brake housing and install a housings end (not supplied
in your Ergopower™ control levers package). and install a
casing lead end (not supplied in your Ergopower™ control
levers package).
NOTES
The housing must be cut so that the end is perpendicular to
the length (Fig. 7). In addition, the cross section of the hou-
sing must not change. After cutting the housing, check that
you have restored its roundness to ensure that there is no
friction between the cable and housing.
To cut the casings, we suggest you to use the specific tool
Park Tool CN-10.
Insert the end of the housing into the provided slot in the
body of the control (Fig. 8). Ensure that the housing rests
perfectly on the bushing fixed on the body.
• Attach the housing to the Ergopower™ control lever as
illustrated. The rear derailleur (or front derailleur) housing
(A - Fig. 9) should be positioned in the outer slot of the con-
trol unit; the brake housing (B - Fig. 9) should be positioned
in the inner slot of the Ergopower™ control lever unit.
• If you prefer, you can pass the derailleur cable housing
alongside the brake casing, as shown in figure 10.
CAUTION
Position the cable so that it is as straight as possible. At all
costs avoid kinks or sharp bends in the housing (less than
R = 50 mm).

WARNING!
After installation, check that the cables do not interfere
with your steering or any other function of your bicycle.
Interference could affect your ability to turn or control your
bicycle, resulting in an accident, personal injury or death.
WARNING!
Before cutting the housing, carefully check that the length
you choose is suitable for the dimensions of your frame.
Insufficient slack in the cable and housing could affect your
ability to turn or control your bicycle, resulting in an accident
personal injury or death.

• Move the control to the smallest sprocket position (Fig. 12).
The Ergopower Ultra-Shift controls allow you to upshift up
to five cogs in a single lever throw.
• Lift up the hood and push the end of the 680 mm long, 4.1
mm diameter housing into the hole provided (Fig. 11).
Slightly bend the cable (for the first 5 – 10 mm) (Fig. 11) to
facilitate insertion of the same into the housing.
Insert the rear derailleur cable (length 2,000 mm - ø 1.2 mm)
into the bottom of the control (B – Fig. 13).

• Run the cable through the right hand opening (D - Fig. 15) of
the cable guide plate located under the bottom bracket box;
insert the cable into the support on the sheath.
D
• On the 330 mm - ø 4.1 mm sheath apply a sheath terminal, run the cable and insert it into the specific right hand rear sheath support (A - Fig. 16).
• Apply a sheath terminal to the other end of the sheath and secure the cable onto the rear derailleur (see the technical manual chapter on the
rear derailleur).

WARNING!
Before cutting out the housing, please be careful to make
sure that the chosen length is suitable for the size of your
frame. An insufficient length may cause too straight curves
and will prevent the transmission from functioning properly.
• Cut the housing (on the frame side) so that it reaches the
metal cable stop on the frame (C - Fig. 14).
• After cutting the housing at the suitable length, fit a
housing end and insert the housing in the Downtube barrel
adjuster (C - Fig. 14) on the frame.

• Please make sure that the cable is flowing freely within
the sheath. Verify in particular that the sheath head entries
are rectilinear (Fig. 17), to avoid hindrances to the gear-
shifting system.
• If the sheath is too short, the shift function will be affected
(Fig.17).
- Lift up the hood and push the end of the 680 mm long, 4.1
mm diameter housing into the hole provided (Fig. 1).
- Slightly bend the cable (for the first 5 – 10 mm) (Fig. 18) to
facilitate insertion of the same into the sheath.
• Move the control to the smallest chainring position.
4.1.2 - FRONT DERAILLEUR CABLE AND HOUSING (WHERE APPLICABLE)
WARNING!
After installation, check that the cables do not interfere with your steering or any other function of your bicycle. Interference could affect your
ability to turn or control your bicycle, resulting in an accident, personal injury or death.
Insert the front derailleur cable (length 1,600 mm - ø 1.2 mm)
into the bottom of the control (B – Fig. 19)
WARNING!
Before cutting out the housing, please be careful to make
sure that the chosen length is suitable for the size of your
frame. An insufficient length may cause too straight curves
and will prevent the transmission from functioning properly
(Fig. 20).
