Shimano Deore XT BR-M8120 Trail Front Disc Brake BL-M8100 Right Lever

The XT M8120 brakes are the latest edition of the much loved Shimano XT range. Featuring the same Servo-wave lever design as the XTR range, they now come with a taller and flatter lever blade for better ergonomics. The M8120 brakes feature a more inboard clamp position which in turn increases braking efficiency and offers quicker brake engagement. The 4 piston design gives you plenty of power when you need it and the Ice Tech finned brake pads mean the brakes stay cooler under prolonged braking.

The brakes are Shimano J-Kit which means they are fully bled in the factory and the brake line is disconnected at the lever end to allow for easier installation on frames with internal routing. The brake line is capped and the lever plugged and the olive is shipped inside the brake lever. If you don’t need to trim your brake lines you can reattach the brake line without the need to bleed your brakes.
