Contents of Shimano SLX M7100 Disc Brake:

SLX disc brake lever BL M7100 and brake caliper BR M7100, including brake pads with SM-BH90-SBM brake line. The necessary screws, washers and spare line nipples for assembly are included in the scope of delivery.

These brakes are supplied without oil. The One-Way Bleeding Funnel TL-BR003 and SMDBOIL oil are required for bleeding.

Shimano Deore SLX brake lever BL M7100:

The SLX brake levers, featuring a 1.5-finger lever for ergonomic handling, are suitable for direct mounting with I-Spec EV shift levers. The free travel has been reduced, resulting in an even more direct response. The brake levers follow the design of the XTR brake levers and are also mounted at an angle rather than parallel to the handlebar, so that they are supported at a second point on the handlebar in addition to the clamp, making them significantly stiffer than before. For individual adjustment, the levers feature tool-free grip width adjustment. Shimano’s patented Servowave technology ensures quick response and excellent modulation of braking power.

Shimano SLX BR-M7100 brake calipers:

The SLX BR-M7100 brake calipers from the current 12-speed M7100 component series, featuring G05 S-Resin brake pads without cooling fins. The SLX BR-M7100 brake caliper, designed for cross-country and marathon use, is torsionally rigid and approved for brake discs up to 203 mm. The brake calipers feature the Post Mount standard and are compatible with adapters for Post Mount and IS2000 frame and fork mounts

Shimano I Spec EV:

The new I-Spec version of the Shimano XTR shifters and brakes offers a wide adjustment range – 14 mm laterally and 60 degrees of rotation – ensuring optimal shifter ergonomics. With the I-Spec EV version, the shifter can be mounted on XTR M9100/9120 brake levers in a space-saving manner. Furthermore, mounting via the new standard offers a 14-millimetre lateral adjustment range, and the shifter can also be rotated by 60 degrees. The new I-Spec EV version is not compatible with older brakes.

The Shimano SLX Disc is supplied with Post Mount 6 brake calipers.
