Shimano Deore BR-M6120 Disc Brake Set J-Kit

Shimano Deore BR-M6120 disc brake set - brake power for Enduro

The Shimano Deore BR-M6120 disc brake set with front and rear brakes is designed for tough Enduro and trail use, because it has powerful 4-piston brake calipers. These are controlled by aluminium 2-finger brake levers with adjustable reach. The Servo Wave construction helps to optimally control the braking force. Split clamps are available for mounting the brake levers and the I-Spec EV interface also allows combination with matching shifters. The BL-M6100 has been equipped with an extra support point on the handlebars, which gives more control and stability. Funnel bleeding and One-Way Bleeding technology, which prevents air bubbles from remaining in the caliper, make maintenance easier. As a J-Kit, this brake set is delivered in such a way that you can install it easily, even if the brake hoses on your bike are routed internally.

Technology:

Servo Wave
Shimano Servo Wave technology optimises the travel of your brake levers. During the braking process, the brake pads are guided quickly to the brake rotor with very short lever travel. The greater part of the lever travel is reserved for the actual braking force. In this way, you can apply your braking power in a more targeted manner and use it more effectively.

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.

One Way Bleeding
One Way Bleeding is a technique used on Shimano calipers that facilitates brake bleeding. The hose routing has been optimised so that no air bubbles remain in the brake calliper. In combination with the funnel, the brake can be bled cleanly and easily.

J-Kit
J-Kit is a simple line connection system for hydraulic brakes from Shimano, so that you can install your brakes quickly and easily. The brake hose does not come connected to the brake to facilitate routing of the hose in the frame. The brake hose is already filled with oil in the J-Kit and sealed with a thin membrane. There is a small pin in the J-Kit brake lever that pierces this diaphragm during assembly to allow oil to flow.
