Description - Disc brake caliper Shimano XT BR-M8220 4-piston Metal w/Fin
SHIMANO is probably one of the most famous and popular manufacturers of quality bicycle parts and accessories in the world. Parts from this manufacturer are more or less used in most of the bicycles Founded in 1921 in Japan, the company currently has perhaps the widest range of products for both amateurs and professionals. Every year, innovations are introduced that allow cyclists to shift gears more precisely, brake more efficiently or finish the track faster. Currently the company is expanding the offer of electronic gear shifting mechanisms and electric bicycle parts more and more. The range of products is not limited to bicycle parts, clothing for cyclists is offered as well.
The 4-piston, 2-piece BR-M8220 caliper is the strongest in the M8200 family, made to increase power, consistency, and control. New, low viscosity oil keeps the M8220 brakes' bite point consistent in all trail and weather conditions, and new brake pads eliminate rattling noise caused by vibration. Increased power and consistency give riders pin-point control on rough trails.
The SERVOWAVE technology, which manages the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc during the entire braking phase, offers an optimized performance curve and a correspondingly more balanced braking performance. In addition, the entire braking system benefits from the mineral oil introduced with the XTR M9200 series, which features a lower viscosity compared to the previous version to keep braking performance constant over a wider temperature range. That details also matter, is shown by the revised, oval brake pad mount, which, in conjunction with the perfectly matched brake pad options, eliminates unnecessary noise.

TECHNOLOGIES
ICE TECHNOLOGIES - In order to keep the braking power at longer continuous operation consistently high, Shimano has developed the Ice-Tech cooling technology for brake discs and brake pads. Brake pads with Ice Technologies feature cooling fins made of aluminum, which better dissipate heat. In conjunction with the optimized radiation properties of the rotor, this results in a longer durability of the pads, while brake noise and fading are minimized.
