    New to road bikes and need advise on replacing Tektro callipers.
    I have Shimano 105 shifters, my question is can I use any 105 or ultegra brake calipers?

    Was there a mounting point standard change? Best way to a quick answer post the bike you have and a pic (link to the spec should help) – also Hydro? are they hydro levers or a through a cable conversion? May need new shifters too

    Probably 😕
    Shimano publish compatibility tables (link). They do them for different product years, scroll down to find brake systems. ST/BL is the lever part code and BR the brake

    I’ll try to find the actual model number of the shifters and use the guide

    Sorry to hijack the thread, and tbh, can’t really help with your question, but I’ve got a pair of new calipers (5800 I think but would have to check) that was gonna put up for sale. Let me know if you’re interested.
