Yes, the system arrives pre-bled, which means the hydraulic lines are already filled with fluid and ready for immediate mounting to your bike.

This system uses Shimano mineral oil. It is important to use only compatible mineral oil, as using automotive DOT fluid will damage the internal seals.

The four-piston design provides more contact area and clamping force on the rotor, resulting in significantly more stopping power and better heat management on long, technical descents.

While these are built for the demands of technical trails and descents, they are versatile enough for aggressive cross-country or trail riding where you want extra stopping confidence.

Resin pads offer excellent modulation and quiet operation in dry to moderately wet conditions. If you frequently ride in extremely muddy or gritty environments, you may eventually want to swap them for metallic pads, which tend to last longer in abrasive conditions.
