Shimano Disc Brake Kit M6000 - J-KIT - 1700mm

SHIMANO BL-MT501/BR-M6000 DISC BRAKE

The SHIMANO brake kit, featuring the BL-MT501 lever and BR-M6000 2 piston brake caliper, offers an excellent quality to price ratio.

Equipped with a SERVO WAVE brake, it delivers outstanding and reliable performance while maintaining smooth operation. The short, 2-finger lever is slim, ergonomic, and designed for precise braking control. The master cylinder and dual-piston caliper ensure powerful and dependable braking under all conditions.

Thanks to its I-SPEC clamp, installation is very quick and does not require removing the grips. The J-KIT system allows for adjusting the hose length before securing it to the master cylinder and/or simplifying internal cable routing.

BRAKE INSTALLATION

• - Position the brake lever on the handlebar.
• - Mount the caliper on the disc brake mount.
• - Remove the black rubber cap from the end of the hose.
• - Remove the plugs located at the end of the brake levers.
• - Slide the black rubber nut cover onto the hose.
• - Do not remove the small seal located at the end of the hose.
• - Insert the brake hose into the lever nut.
• - While ensuring the hose is fully seated in the lever nut, tighten the nut to compress the olive within the lever. Do not overtighten; the nut threading should remain visible, as it will later be covered by the rubber nut cover you slid onto the hose earlier.
• - Finally, activate the brake lever to complete the installation.
