Shimano has followed an unchanging policy for many years - the latest technologies always appear in the top XTR group, which are very highly priced, and after a while they flow down to the lower groups and become more friendly to the wallet of the average MTB rider, and thus simply more accessible. In fact, we don't really mind, because this way we know what to expect in the near future. When the first 1x12 drivetrain with a gear range of 10-51T signed with the XTR logo was introduced in 2018, many people were impatiently waiting for the technologies used to move to lower groups - Deore XT and SLX. And indeed, Shimano soon introduced these groups.

The Shimano SLX BR-M7100 brake is a set, consisting of a handle and a caliper with two pistons. It is designed for broad MTB use. The brake uses resin linings without a heat sink. Their advantage is excellent modulation and sufficient braking power for most applications. The advantage of non-metallic pads is also the blissful silence that accompanies braking. The Shimano SLX BR-M7100 are actuated by a handle. Its main advantage is the Servo Wave technology. It guarantees high braking power and low idle stroke of the lever. The manufacturer used a new mounting system. Thanks to it, the caliper is in contact with the handlebars in two places, which translates into a more rigid connection. The brake handle also features lever position adjustment with a convenient knob.

Product features:

• Optimized lever axle position with additional contact point and improved ergonomics
• 10% more rigidity than the M7000, even at high temperatures
