The XT BLM 8000 brake levers, featuring a 1.5-finger lever for ergonomic handling, are suitable for direct mounting (I-Spec II) on the shift lever. The Shimano XT BR-M-8000 brake levers are equipped with the new Servo Wave System for even better responsiveness.
Shimano SLX brake caliper BR-M7000:
The SLX brake calipers always feature a Post Mount caliper and an adapter suitable for the disc size and fork. The Shimano SLX brake caliper BR-M7000 is torsion-resistant and approved for brake discs up to 203 mm.
Shimano I-Spec II Mounting:
The XT BLM 8000 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
