Shimano BLM8100 disc brake lever

The original 3-finger brake lever for the Shimano XT brakes BR8100 and BRM8120. Compatible with Shimano XTR, XT, SLX, LX and Saint disc brake calipers.

Shimano Deore XT brake lever BL T8100:

The XT BLT 8000 brake levers, featuring a 3-finger lever for ergonomic handling, are suitable for direct mounting (I-Spec II) of the shift levers. The brake levers follow the design of the XTR brake levers and are also mounted at an angle rather than parallel to the handlebars, so that they are supported at a second point on the handlebars in addition to the clamp, making them significantly stiffer than before. For individual adjustment, the levers are equipped with a tool-free grip width adjustment.

Shimano I-Spec II mounting:

The XT BL T8100 disc brake levers are suitable for direct mounting (I-Spec II) with the SLM 8000 and SLM 9000 shift levers. This mounting system allows for space-saving installation of the shift levers directly onto the brake lever clamp.

Shimano changed the I-Spec mount to Type II for the 2016 system. You can recognise these by the addition of ‘II’ to the lever designation. Older Shimano I-Spec shift levers are not compatible with the new I-Spec II brake levers
