Shimano dominate the rim brake market at the moment and these XTs continue their success.

The brakes have good power and are good in the wet but they do squeal a bit! The XTs are easy to maintain and look good. They include a clever double pivoted design. They can also be easily set up to the rider’s taste. So overall these brakes, we think are better than most other cable rim brakes and are well worth a look if you are after some good quality rim
brakes from a good quality manufacturer.
