Shimano ’s XTR M9220 2-piston front brake is designed to deliver reliable, progressive braking power that is perfectly suited to the demands of cross-country (XC) mountain biking. Combining an ergonomic BL-M9220 lever with an ultra-lightweight 2-piston caliper, it guarantees precise modulation and optimum control in all conditions.
Thanks to the use of low-viscosity Shimano mineral oil, consistent braking performance is ensured, regardless of temperature or the duration of the ride. The lever features a robust forged design with an alloy blade, offering both lightness and durability. Its ergonomics have been enhanced with simplified reach adjustment via a small dial, ensuring a perfect fit for every rider.
The XTR M9220 brake also stands out for its sleek design, thanks in particular to optimised hose routing, ensuring a neat and functional cockpit. Its magnesium construction reduces the overall weight, making it ideal for competitors seeking maximum performance.
With its finless resin pads, it offers quiet and progressive braking, perfect for XC riding. A top-of-the-range choice for discerning riders who want to combine lightness, reliability and precision.
