Shimano Deore XT BL-M8100 Hydraulic Disc Brake Lever – I-Spec EV – Right Shifter/Lever

Shimano Deore XT BL-M8100 brake lever

The Shimano Deore XT BL-M8100 brake lever’s clamp is angled what leads to direct contact between compensation tank and handlebar. The so created two contact points provide significantly increased stiffness, which ultimately results in more direct feedback and thus more braking power.

The braking performance is optimized as well by the ShimanoSERVOWAVEtechnology which improves the lever’s modulation ability. Because the brake lever absorbs a lot of braking distance right at the start of its movement, the brake pads have disc contact more quickly and it remains more lever travel to adjust braking force. That is why SERVO WAVE brake systems are characterized by faster response, higher performance and shorter idle travel.

The BL-M8100 is even under high temp conditions 10 % stiffer than its predecessor. The brake lever’s reach is individually adjustable without the use of any additional tools. Thanks to theI-Spec EVdesign the Deore XT SL-M8100-I shifting levers can be mounted directly to the brake lever.
