Powerful four-piston performance at a fair price: The Shimano MT501/MT520 (rear) combines the BL-MT501 brake lever with the BR-MT520 4-piston brake caliper - ideal for everything from XC and trail riding to E-MTBs. Servo-Wave ensures quick engagement, while the opposed pistons with two piston diameters increase the contact area for controlled, consistent braking performance. Thermally insulated pads and pistons improve stability under heat and service life. The brake hose is preassembled and bled - but still needs to be connected.

Highlights:

• 4-piston brake caliper (BR-MT520): high braking power, precise modulation, wide contact area
• Servo-Wave lever (BL-MT501): quick pad engagement, short free stroke, strong control
• Easy to maintain: D01 Resin pads, thermally insulated pistons and pads, Postmount fitting
