Shimano XTR XC M9200 Hydraulic Disc Brake Caliper

The Shimano XTR 2-Piston Hydraulic Disc Brake Caliper (often identified as BR-M9200 or BR-M9100) is the pinnacle of cross-country braking performance, engineered for elite racers and weight-conscious riders who demand absolute control and minimal mass. This caliper provides a powerful yet highly controllable braking force, perfectly tuned for the rapid accelerations and technical descents found on modern XC courses.

• Optimized 2-Piston Design: Features two ceramic pistons that deliver excellent stopping power with a highly linear response, making it easy to modulate braking force precisely. This design is optimized for the demands of XC, balancing power with significant weight savings.
• MONO-BODY Construction: Crafted from a single, cold-forged aluminum block, the caliper boasts an incredibly rigid and lightweight "mono-body" construction. This one-piece design significantly enhances braking stiffness and stability, translating to a more direct and confidence-inspiring feel at the lever.
• Lightweight Materials: Precision-engineered with lightweight materials throughout, including a magnesium body (when paired with the BL-M9200 lever) and ceramic pistons, contributing to the overall minimal weight essential for competitive XC.
• Superior Heat Management: While a 2-piston design, it's optimized for heat dissipation. When combined with Shimano's ICE TECHNOLOGIES FREEZA rotors (RT-CL900 or RT-MT900 series, sold separately) and optional finned pads, it maintains consistent braking performance even during sustained efforts.
• High-Performance Brake Pads: Comes compatible with high-performance resin (K05Ti-RX) or metallic (K04Ti-MX) brake pads, often with titanium backing plates for further weight reduction and heat management.
• One-Way Bleeding: Incorporates Shimano's convenient One-Way Bleeding system, making maintenance and brake bleeding a cleaner and simpler process, ensuring air bubbles are efficiently removed from the system.
• Post Mount Design: Utilizes the widely adopted Post Mount standard, ensuring broad compatibility with modern mountain bike frames and forks.
• Sleek & Integrated Aesthetics: The minimalist design and refined finish align perfectly with the high-end XTR component group, contributing to a clean and professional-looking bike build.
