Rear Shimano Deore XT disc brakes with SERVO WAVE ACTION technology and low-viscosity mineral oil.
Technical features
- Brake caliper selection: pair the BL-M8200 with an M8220 Enduro brake caliper for high braking power and control on rough trails, or with M8200 XC brake calipers for a lighter setup.
- Consistent brake control: smooth SERVO WAVE ACTION technology optimizes the power curve and manages friction between the pads and rotor throughout the lever stroke for more balanced braking. New low-viscosity mineral oil helps maintain consistent power across a wider temperature range.
- Durability: the BL-M8200 alloy brake lever is made using SHIMANO’s proven forging process.
- Improved ergonomics: the lever shape, pivot points and improved reach adjustment make the BL-M8220 comfortable for a range of riders.
- Neat hose routing: the updated BL-M8200 hose routing provides a cleaner appearance.
- Updated seals and low-viscosity oil provide a reliable bite point across a range of temperatures and trail conditions.
- Predictable power: the DH-level power curve is refined for the demands of enduro racing and all-day trail riding.
- Heat dissipation: resin or metal pads, with or without cooling fins, let riders fine-tune brake feel when used with SHIMANO rotors.
- Rattle-free: the improved pad and oval mounting design eliminates unnecessary noise.
- Brake pads: metal, with cooling fins.
- Brake hose length: 1700 mm, black.
- Brake lever: BL-M8200 J-Kit.
