Shimano Deore Disc Brake
Best rear braking upgrade for trail riders seeking responsive, tunable control.

The short-stroke lever offers incredibly responsive engagement, though you sacrifice the infinite adjustability found on more expensive, pro-level systems. It is the perfect balance of simplicity and control for everyday riders.
