You may have heard people talking about Shimano’s newest groupset, Claris 2400. This is Shimano’s most entry level component with their dual-control shifters, meaning that both shifters are on the break lever themselves (rather than a thumb button on the hood). With improved shifting and a sleek, darker anodized grey, this is a grew new group for anyone looking for a new road bike on a budget. Above are photos of the 2014 Jamis Ventura Sport, and the 2014 Bianchi Nirone 7 Claris, both featuring these new components, and both in stock at Cambridge Bicycle. Stop by for a test ride!
