    Rien à redire, correspond parfaitement à la description. Dans l'emballage en carton shimano avec tous les accessoires. Attention les joint pour la vis banjo ne sont pas inclus, il faut donc faire attention de ne pas les abimer, mais c'est comme cela sur tous les sites. Les joints sont vendus avec la vis sur ce site, mais plus cher que sur d'autres sites. Perso, j'ai commander deux étriers pour remplacer mes anciens de la meme référence qui fuyaient suite à une mauvaise manip.

    Eigentlich eine Gute Bremse mit viel Power und macht so gut wie keine Geräusche. Leider hatte ich das Pech das die Keramik Kolben schon 2 mal festgefahren waren und mit viel Aufwand wieder gängig gemacht werden konnten. Das ist mir mit noch keine Bremse passiert. Deswegen nur 3 Sterne. Vielleicht habe ich sehr viel Pech gehabt oder es liegt an der Bremse. Beim nächsten mal würde ich die Saint oder die XTR probieren.

    Bietet viel Bremskraft, Standfestigkeit und gute Modulation bei shimanotypisch festem Druckpunkt. Drückt sich dennoch angenehm und weicher als der alte BR-M785 Sattel, ohne mit Kraft zu geizen und arbeitet mit dessen Hebel problemlos zusammen. Auch im Bikepark mit Resinpad und mit 203mm Scheibe ohne Ice-Tech locker ausreichend.
