Shimano Deore XT BL-M8200 / BR-M8200 Disc Brake - Post Mount | 2-Piston | J-Kit - Set (front + rear)

Deore XT – Where Passion Meets Precision.

With its introduction in the 1980s, the Deore XT series revolutionized mountain biking. And its current iteration more than lives up to this legacy. The revised Di2 design stands out in particular, which is now completely wireless and enables fast and reliable shifting. This is not the only point where it ties in with the newly launched XTR M9200 series. With the equally robust drivetrain design and the sophisticated braking system, the Deore XT M8200 is a groupset that not only effortlessly withstands real riding situations, but also redefines what is possible on two wheels.

Predictable Power From The First Pull. Shimano Deore XT disc brake set consisting of the BL-M8200 lever and the BR-M8200 hydraulic brake calliper. The SERVOWAVE technology, which manages the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc during the entire braking phase, offers an optimized performance curve and a correspondingly more balanced braking performance. In addition, the entire braking system benefits from the mineral oil introduced with the XTR M9200 series, which has a lower viscosity compared to the previous version to keep braking performance constant over a wider temperature range. Smooth and simple maintenance is ensured by the Easy Hose Joint Systemwhich makes brake hose replacement considerably easier.

Shimano Deore XT BL-M8200 brake levers

The Deore XT brake levers of the M8200 series are not only characterized by powerful and reliable deceleration performance, but also impress with ergonomics that are perfectly tailored to the hand. This is primarily due to the ERGO FLOW concept, which features a slightly upwardly curved brake lever blade and an optimized, narrower pivot point that follows the natural curve of the finger. The result combines a powerful pull with a smooth lever feel for precise modulation and ultimate control. While the aluminum lever blade is designed for durability, the revised adjustment wheel makes it easier to adjust the grip width (Reach). The I-Spec EV mount not only ensures a simple connection with the shift lever, but also a tidier cockpit.

Shimano Deore XT BR-M8200 disc brake caliper

The BR-M8200 brake caliper of the current Deore XT series relies on a durable aluminum housing and heat-resistant pistons made of synthetic resin (Resin). The 2-piston design of the Postmount brake caliper not only saves weight, but also increases braking power and control on rough, steep trails, especially in combination with the BL-M8200 brake lever. The revised, oval brake pad mount, which, in conjunction with the perfectly matched brake pad options, eliminates unnecessary noise.

J-Kit (Easy Hose Joint System) | For brake systems with J-Kit brake line connection, the brake lever has an integrated crush seal (olive), which makes it much easier to install and remove the brake line.
