Description

The four-piston, two-piece BR-M8220 caliper is the strongest in the M8200 family,made to maximize power, consistency, and control. New, low viscosity oil keepsthe M8220 brakes bite point consistent in all trail and weather conditions, andnew brake pads eliminate rattling noise caused by vibration. Increased power andconsistency give riders pin-point control on rough trails.

The alloy 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 ultimate 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 Shimanos new low viscosity mineral oil keeps power consistent over a wider range of temperatures.
