SHIMANO BR-MT520 – MAXIMUM 4-PISTON POWER FOR EVERY TRAIL
The Shimano BR-MT520 brake caliper delivers massive braking power in a surprisingly sleek design. Despite its powerful 4-piston construction, it is as compact as conventional 2-piston models. The four ceramic pistons offer excellent heat insulation and ensure smooth, highly controllable deceleration – ideal for a variety of riding styles, from demanding mountain biking to e-bike use.
Improved pad wear control and efficient heat management maintain consistently high braking performance, even on long descents. The caliper is made of painted aluminum and comes with the proven Shimano D03S resin brake pads, known for their quiet operation and excellent modulation.
