Shimano Deore XT RT-MT800 Disc Brake Rotor: Conquer Heat & Elevate Control
Engineered for demanding riders tackling steep descents and heavy loads – whether you’re pushing limits in enduro racing, exploring rugged all-mountain terrain, or loaded bikepacking – the Shimano Deore XT RT-MT800 Centerlock rotor delivers unwavering stopping power when it matters most.
Its secret weapon? Shimano’s revolutionary FREEZA Technology. This isn’t just a surface treatment; it’s an integrated cooling system built into the rotor’s core structure. An aluminum layer sandwiched within acts like a heat sink, actively pulling intense friction heat away from the braking surface towards the hub area where airflow is greater. This translates directly to significantly reduced brake fade, even during prolonged downhill braking sessions on hot days. Experience consistent lever feel and confidence-inspiring control mile after mile.
Installation is refreshingly simple thanks to the spline mount design. Just slide it onto your hub’s splines and secure it with the included lock ring – no fiddly bolts or special tools required for a quick wheel swap or trailside maintenance.
Versatility is key: The RT-MT800 works flawlessly with both metal and resin brake pads, giving you the freedom to choose your preferred compound based on riding style (aggressive downhill vs. cross-country efficiency) and weather conditions without worrying about rotor compatibility issues.
