The alloy Shimano Deore XT BL-M8200 brake lever has been refined with evolved ergonomics and the human hand in mind, delivering a powerful pull with consistent lever feel and modulation for precise control. A new closer pivot point follows the natural arc of your finger, while the dialed reach adjust puts the rider in a natural position to attack technical sections of trail. Redesigned Servo Wave optimizes the power curve and manages pad-to-rotor friction throughout the lever pull for better balanced braking, while Shimano's new low viscosity mineral oil keeps power consistent over a wider range of temperatures.
Heat-resistant resin pistons, resin and metal pad options, and new low viscosity mineral oil make the Shimano Deore XT BR-M8200 caliper the ideal option for any 2-piston brake requirement. Pair the updated BR-M8200 2-piston post-mount caliper with the BL-M8200 lever for weight savings, while also prioritizing stopping power and control in rougher, steeper trails.
Main features:
- Caliper Customization: Pair the BL-M8200 with the M8220 Enduro caliper for high stopping power and control in rough terrain, or the M8200 XC calipers for a more weight-conscious set-up.
- Consistent Brake Control: Smooth Servo Wave Action optimizes the power curve and manages pad-to-rotor friction throughout the lever pull for better balanced braking, while new low viscosity mineral oil keeps power consistent over a wider range of temperatures.
- Durability: BL-M8200's alloy lever blade utilizes Shimano's tried and true stamping process.
- Evolved Ergonomics: New lever shapes and pivot points and improved reach adjust make the BL-M8220 a comfortable fit for all types of riders.
- Tidy Cable Routing: Updated cable routing on the BL-M8200 creates a clean aesthetic.
- Solid Construction: Alloy caliper body emphasizes durability.
- Custom Controls: Pair the BR-M8200 caliper with the BL-M8200 Deore XT lever to strike the ideal balance between power and weight.
- Consistent Brake Control: Redesigned Servo Wave optimizes the power curve and manages pad-to-rotor friction throughout the lever pull for better balanced braking, while new low viscosity mineral oil keeps power consistent over a wider range of temperatures.
