Designed for both front and rear wheel setups, this 2-piston post mount caliper ensures consistent performance across all riding conditions. Its oversized 22mm phenolic pistons offer excellent heat insulation and lightweight stiffness, allowing you to maintain control even during intense descents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered with an opposed 2-piston design, the calliper reduces the leading effect and promotes even pad wear, enhancing braking control and responsiveness. The increased pad-to-rotor clearance minimizes the risk of rotor drag when riding through muddy terrain, while the forged calliper construction balances rigidity with low weight for improved handling. Installation and maintenance are simplified thanks to the shim-less mounting bracket and the one-way internal fluid circuit, making bleeding straightforward and efficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with mineral oil brake fluid, which is non-corrosive and safer than traditional hydraulic fluids, this calliper pairs best with Ice Tech Center Lock rotors and comes equipped with G05A resin pads for immediate use. For those seeking enhanced heat dissipation, optional Ice Tech pads with aluminum radiation fins reduce brake surface temperatures by up to 50°C, ensuring consistent performance on demanding rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReliable and powerful braking in diverse weather and trail conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFront or rear wheel use with post mount compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduced heat buildup thanks to oversized phenolic pistons and optional Ice Tech pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEasy installation and maintenance with shim-less mounting and simplified bleeding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight and durable forged calliper design for enhanced bike handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat It’s NOT Good For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse without compatible adapters for International Standard mounts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-compatible with brake setups requiring more than 2 pistons\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot suitable for riders seeking mechanical brake systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRequires mineral oil brake fluid; not compatible with DOT fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this caliper be used on both front and rear wheels?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the Shimano Deore XT BR-M8100 caliper supports both front and rear wheel installation with post mount configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it come with brake pads included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, it comes with G05A resin pads, and you can upgrade to Ice Tech pads with aluminum fins for improved heat dissipation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shimano Deore XT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45477608587439,"sku":"BRM8100FR","price":63.23,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/2003\/4223\/files\/1559309017-09803900.jpg?v=1768516694","url":"https:\/\/www.swinnertoncycles.co.uk\/products\/shimano-deore-xt-br-m8100-2-piston-hydraulic-disc-brake-caliper-front-rear-post-mount","provider":"Swinnerton Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
