The Shimano XTR BL-M9220 brake lever is designed with evolved ergonomics and the human hand in mind delivering a powerful pull with consistent lever feel and modulation for ultimate control. A new closer pivot point follows the natural arc of your finger while the 5-degree upswept lever blade and dialed reach adjust put the rider in a natural position to attack technical sections of trail. Redesigned SERVO WAVE optimizes the power curve without friction while new Shimano low viscosity mineral oil keeps power consistent over all temperatures and terrain.
