Power and control for real-world trail riding. This rear brake pairs the BL-M8100 left lever with the BR-M8120 four-piston caliper to deliver strong, consistent stopping and crisp modulation. The lever’s Servo Wave action, I-SPEC EV clamp, and reach + free-stroke adjust give a dialled cockpit and fast pad engagement, while the M8120 caliper’s quick piston retraction and banjo hose routing keep things quiet and powerful on long descents.

Why riders choose it

  • 4-piston trail power with improved control and quieter running; Shimano notes reduced rotor wobble noise and a power gain vs M8000.

  • Servo Wave lever feel with tool-free reach and free-stroke adjustment; stiffer body vs M8000 for a firmer lever under load.

  • Banjo connection & internal hose routing for a clean, snag-free setup.

  • ICE TECHNOLOGIES-ready rotors and pads for heat management on big descents.

What’s in the box (rear kit)

  • BL-M8100 left lever + BR-M8120 caliper, pre-bled with hose (typical rear length ~1700 mm). Pads fitted; exact pad spec may vary by batch.

Fitment & compatibility

  • Mount: Post-mount caliper (use adapters as needed for rotor size).

  • Hose: BH90 series with banjo at the caliper.

  • Pads: Compatible with Shimano N04C (metal finned) / N03A (resin finned) and D02S (metal) / D03S (resin).

  • Rotors: Optimised for Shimano ICE TECHNOLOGIES (e.g., RT-MT800); follow your frame/fork max rotor size.

  • Fluid: Shimano mineral oil (pre-bled).

Best for

Trail and enduro riders who want reliable four-piston power with smooth modulation, easy setup, and a tidy, integrated cockpit.
