The alloy BL-M8200 brake lever has been refined with evolved ergonomics and the human hand in mind, delivering a powerful pull with consistent lever feel and modulation for precise control. A new closer pivot point follows the natural arc of your finger, while the dialed reach adjust puts the rider in a natural position to attack technical sections of trail. Redesigned SERVO WAVE optimizes the power curve and manages pad-to-rotor friction throughout the lever pull for better balanced braking, while SHIMANO's new low viscosity mineral oil keeps power consistent over a wider range of temperatures.
