Shimano XTR

The Shimano XTR M9020 brakes are nothing short of bike jewellery The one-piece, sculpted aluminium caliper looks just beautiful, and the finned pads add to their potent appeal. The lever pioneered the same alloy master cylinder as found on the new XT brakes, with the smaller bar clamp and improved reach adjust control. The action of the servo-wave has been improved with a new Sil-Tec coating, which can easily be felt on the trail with a silky smooth progression to the contact point.

In use, we experienced the exceptional Shimano feel that many riders love: crisp and accurate braking rich in feedback from the lever. The monoblock caliper delivered more power than the XT in the lab, and felt sharper with more bite on the trails. The Shimano XTR make great brakes for general E-MTB trail riding and flow trails; however, for those who enjoy gravity thrills, the power of the Shimano Saints would be our recommendation.
