Shimano XTR Race M9100 Disc Brake Set

The high-end XTR XC and All Mountain disc brakes are very light and responsive, featuring carbon levers, ceramic pistons and titanium hardware. With the XTR Centerlock RT-MT900 discs and optional XTR adapters

Featuring 2-piston calipers, a new I-Spec EV clamp and a new lever body. The clamp moves further towards the centre of the lever and is angled. This allows the outer end of the reservoir to rest directly on the handlebar in a clever way, thereby creating an additional counter-support when the lever is actuated. This significantly increases stiffness and stability, ultimately leading to an even more direct braking feel and improved controllability. The BR-M9100 dual-piston brake realises its full potential when paired with the BL-M9100 brake lever. The brake calipers feature a one-piece aluminium design and are combined with highly rigid brake lines, enabling the new XTR brake systems to deliver significantly faster response times and reduced free travel.

Contents of the Shimano XTR Race brake set

XTR disc brake lever BL M9100 and brake caliper BR M9100, including brake pads with SM-BH90-SBM brake hose. The necessary screws, washers, spare hose nipples and hose sleeves 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 XTR BL-M9100 brake lever:

The Shimano XTR Disc Brake Lever BL-M9100, featuring a lightweight carbon lever, is equipped with a cylindrical reservoir and the new lever guide for significantly more ergonomic handling. Thanks to ServoWave, it offers 30 per cent faster response and, due to a redesign, 10 per cent more braking power. The I-Spec EV mount for direct mounting of the Shimano 12-speed MTB shift levers ensures a tidy cockpit.

Shimano XTR BR-M9100 brake caliper:

The monoblock calipers of the new XTR 2-piston disc brake are made of aluminium and always feature a post-mount caliper with an adapter to suit the disc size and fork. The one-piece caliper is extremely torsion-resistant and approved for brake discs up to 203 mm. Equipped with brake pads on titanium/aluminium plates with external cooling fins, brake heat is reliably dissipated.

Shimano I-Spec EV Mounting:

The new I-Spec EV system offers a wider adjustment range with 14 mm lateral movement and 60 degrees of rotation. The I-Spec EV mount is not compatible with older I-Spec Type A, Type B or Type II mounts.

Shimano RT-MT-900 Centerlock Disc

The RT MT900 brake discs are designated by Shimano for the XTR and Saint series, but can of course also be used with other Shimano disc brakes.

The Shimano RT-MT-900 Ice Tech Freeza brake discs feature additional cooling fins. The Centrelock brake discs on the aluminium carrier are manufactured using a sandwich construction. The aluminium core is encased by the steel braking surface. This significantly reduces heat build-up and increases the durability of all Shimano brakes.

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