Shimano XTR XC BL-M9100 Brake Lever

The XTR XC BL-M9100 brake lever by Shimano - for more control

Compared to its predecessor, the Shimano XTR XC BL-M9100 brake lever has been equipped with a modified clamp. It is now centred and has an angle so that the reservoir can be supported by the handlebar. More stiffness, a more direct brake feel and more control are the result. Added to this is the innovative I-Spec EV system for the integration of a compatible shift lever, which opens up additional adjustment options. Braking force, lever travel and reaction time have also been optimised. BL-M9100 is designed for Cross Country use and is therefore designed for weight optimization, which is shown i.e. by the carbon lever or the omission of a pressure point adjustment system.

Technology:

I-Spec EV
I-Spec EV describes a variant of the connection between brake lever and shift lever on Shimano MTB derailleurs. This type of mounting allows the shifter to be adjusted both horizontally and vertically in relation to the brake lever, and ensures a tidy cockpit by reducing the number of clamps required. Compared to I-Spec and I-Spec II, I-Spec EV offers a much wider adjustment range. 14 mm adjustment range the longitudinal direction and up to 60° rotation allow an optimal ergonomic adjustment to your riding style, your sitting position and your anatomy.
