Shimano XT BL-M8200/BR-M8220 Disc Brake Set

Designed with ergonomics and the human hand in mind, the Shimano XT BL-M8200 2-finger hydraulic brake lever offers a powerful pull with smooth lever feel and modulation for ultimate control in combination with the 4-piston BR-M8220 caliper. A new, closer pivot point follows the natural arc of the finger, while the 5-degree upturned lever and tuned grip width favor a natural position for confidently tackling technical trail sections.

Robust, intuitive and consistent: XT BL-M8200+BR-M8220 4-Piston Disc Brake Set Shimano

The revised SERVO WAVE optimises the power curve without friction, while the new low-viscosity mineral oil keeps braking power constant at all temperatures and on all terrains.

With ultimate stopping power, consistency and control, the 4-piston BR-M8220 hydraulic caliper is the most powerful caliper in the Shimano XT M8200 family. New low-viscosity oil keeps the pad contact point of the M8220 brakes constant in all trail and weather conditions, and new brake pads eliminate rattling noises caused by vibrations. Increased braking power and consistency paired with silence ensure precise control on rough trails.

From the foundational moments in the early 1980s when DEORE XT first revolutionized mountain biking, SHIMANO brings fast and reliable shifting, a robust drivetrain construction, and refined braking systems to more riders with the latest introduction of DEORE XT M8200 Di2 components. Following the recent launch of our flagship XTR M9200 race group, DEORE XT receives key technology and design cues from XTR, delivering a robust group designed to withstand the demands of real-world riding, and consistently redefining what's possible on two wheels.
