The Shimano XTR BR-M9220 Brake Upgrade Kit delivers elite-level braking for riders who demand the absolute best on aggressive trails and enduro terrain. Featuring the powerful four-piston BR-M9220 calipers paired with ergonomically advanced BL-M9220 levers, this kit offers downhill-caliber stopping power with precise modulation and a consistent, confidence-inspiring bite.
Redesigned lever ergonomics align with the natural arc of your finger for improved feel and response, while a 5° upswept blade and tool-free reach adjust keep your hands dialed and ready to ride. Inside, Shimano’s latest low-viscosity mineral oil and upgraded internal seals ensure fade-free braking and a reliable bite point in any weather.
The rattle-free BR-M9220 calipers offer smooth performance with the option of either P03A-RF resin or P04C-MF metal pads (both included) so you can tune your brakes for feel or heat resistance. Whether you're charging through steep descents, braking late into corners, or navigating tight, technical lines, this system delivers the power and silence to stay fully in control.
