Boost your braking with the Shimano XTR M9220 4-piston kit. Ultimate power, Ice-Tech thermal management, and total control for Enduro and E-MTB at Pure Bike.
Ultimate braking power for Enduro, technical Trail, and e-MTB: Control, heat management, and reliability.
This Shimano XTR M9220 brake kit is a high-performance choice for Enduro, aggressive Trail, and electric mountain bike (e-MTB) riders. Designed for those who tackle long, steep descents with significant momentum, this Upgrade Kit delivers massive stopping power without compromising precision. The 4-piston calipers, combined with ergonomic levers, provide a consistent brake feel and superior heat dissipation, even in extreme conditions or on heavier bikes. Whether you're racing against the clock or charging down challenging mountain terrain, the M9220 inspires confidence with a perfectly modulated, ultra-powerful braking system. J-Kit technology makes installation much easier, especially on frames with internal hose routing.
