Description
B-stock - what is that?
We refer to B-goods (second choice) as products that can no longer be sold as new goods. The products mostly come from customer returns and are therefore offered at a special price. Before we offer an item as B-stock, it is checked for function and completeness. Buying a B-stock item is not a risk. The statutory liability for material defects remains as does the right of withdrawal.
Condition: Item unused, but not pre-assembled and not pre-filled
SHIMANO Deore XT disc brake 2-piston BL-M8100 + BR-M8100 | front wheel
Arguably the best and most versatile brake from Shimano is also a pioneer in its class in the M8100 version. Due to its wide range of uses and reliability, it is the first choice for many bikers.
Thanks to Servo Wave technology, the brake shines with quick response and a very easy to control pressure point. Bleeding is very easy using one-way bleeding, but is usually only necessary when shortening the brake line. The new arrangement of the clamp provides some space on the handlebars, for example for remote levers. In addition, the rigidity could be significantly increased.
The ergonomically shaped levers can be easily operated with one or two fingers and the reach can be adjusted without tools. The Shimano shift levers with I-Spec EV mount can be attached to the brake levers to save the additional clamp for the levers.
The Deore XT brake caliper is the solution to all braking problems. It grips powerfully, but can be dosed very precisely in combination with the BL-M8100 brake lever. The construction is designed for rapid heat dissipation. This can be further supported by using ICE-Tech brake pads with cooling fins. This means that even longer descents in high mountains are a safe bet.
Installation is extremely easy thanks to the postmount mount and maintenance is not rocket science either with the one-way bleeding system mentioned above.
