In Stock
The Shimano GRX Di2 FD-RX825 brings electronic precision to gravel riding, delivering fast and reliable front shifts even under load. Engineered as part of the flagship 2x12-speed GRX Di2 groupset, it's designed for gravel riders who demand the smooth, predictable performance of Di2 technology on mixed terrain and long-distance adventures.
Highlights
- Electronic Di2 shifting: Instant, precise front shifts at the push of a button — no manual cable tension adjustments needed.
- 47mm chain line: Offset 2.5mm wider than standard 12-speed road derailleurs to improve tyre clearance on gravel and adventure framesets.
- 17T total capacity: Handles the wide gear range typical of gravel riding, supporting chainring combinations up to 48T.
- Braze-on mount: Clean, direct-mount attachment for a lightweight and tidy install on braze-on compatible frames.
- Synchronised shifting modes: Compatible with Full Sync and Semi-Sync modes via E-TUBE PROJECT Cyclist app — the rear derailleur automatically compensates when you shift the front.
- FRONT SHIFT NEXT function: Program any Di2 button to shift the front derailleur, giving you greater flexibility in how you control your gearing.
- E-TUBE connected: Features one SD300 port for wired integration into the GRX Di2 system with firmware updatable via E-TUBE PROJECT.
GRX Di2 System Integration
The FD-RX825 is built to pair with the complete GRX 12-speed Di2 ecosystem, including the ST-RX825 dual-control levers, RD-RX825 rear derailleur, and GRX 12-speed cranksets. The centralised multi-port battery supplies stable power to both derailleurs for long ride reliability. Like Dura-Ace and Ultegra Di2, adjustments are made electronically — eliminating cable stretch and trim adjustment over time.
