I\u2019ve had the chance to test the group myself, and I\u2019m sharing here what\u2019s new, how well it really performs, and what you should consider before buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The XTR has always been the top-of-the-line option in Shimano\u2019s MTB range. It combines lightweight components with maximum performance and is designed for racing. With the new generation, Shimano takes the next step and finally brings Di2 wireless shifting to mountain bikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:100.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"1000\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6129\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_16\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_16-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 1 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#whats_new_with_the_shimano_xtr_2025\" >What\u2019s New with the Shimano XTR 2025?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#finally_wireless_electronic_shifting\" >Finally, Wireless Electronic Shifting<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#a_new_derailleur_with_integrated_battery\" >A New Derailleur with Integrated Battery<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#on_the_trail_fast_and_precise%e2%80%94but_not_indestructible\" >On the Trail: Fast and Precise\u2014but Not Indestructible<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#no_udh_compatibility\" >No UDH Compatibility<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#variants_for_every_riding_style\" >Variants for Every Riding Style<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#battery_handling_simple_and_smart\" >Battery Handling: Simple and Smart<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/en\/shimano-xtr-di2-m9200-im-test\/#crankset_chainring_cassette_proven_tech_with_refinements\" >Crankset, Chainring &amp;

The shifter has been upgraded and now operates exclusively with the thumb. That might be a bit of an adjustment for die-hard Shimano fans who liked using the index finger to shift, but the new design looks sleek and offers excellent tactile feedback. A single press shifts one gear, while holding the lever shifts multiple gears\u2014just how I like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:100.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_4-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_4-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_4-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_4-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6143\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_4\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_4-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_4-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 1 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"a_new_derailleur_with_integrated_battery\"><\/span>A New Derailleur with Integrated Battery<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, the heart of the new XTR is the completely redesigned derailleur. Shimano has given it a wider linkage structure and a special guide-plate design to improve durability and robustness. You can really feel that on the trail\u2014especially in rough terrain. What I really like is that the battery is now permanently integrated into the derailleur. That makes it more secure against impacts and vibrations and ensures it can\u2019t just fall out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The battery itself has 310 mAh\u2014that\u2019s 10 mAh more than SRAM\u2019s AXS. A nice detail, even if it might not make a huge difference in real-world use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another smart touch: the pulley wheels are now better protected and fully enclosed, which helps prevent dirt from getting stuck\u2014addressing a common weak spot on many derailleurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:69.18045%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"1000\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6164\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_20\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_20-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:30.81955%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1000\" data-lbwps-height=\"1500\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10-100x150.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10-840x1260.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10-840x1260.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10-840x1260.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1000&#038;ssl=1 1000w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1500\" data-id=\"6155\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_10\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10-840x1260.jpg\" data-width=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_10-840x1260.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a02 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"on_the_trail_fast_and_precise%e2%80%94but_not_indestructible\"><\/span>On the Trail: Fast and Precise\u2014but Not Indestructible<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In my test, the shifting was impressive across the board: fast, precise, and noticeably quicker than the competition. However, under full load, it feels a bit more delicate than SRAM\u2019s derailleur\u2014it clatters more when I\u2019m really cranking hard. Shimano says that\u2019s not a problem, but I\u2019m curious how it will hold up in hardcore race conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"no_udh_compatibility\"><\/span>No UDH Compatibility<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One important note: the new derailleur still mounts to a traditional derailleur hanger and doesn\u2019t support SRAM\u2019s UDH system. That means you\u2019ll still need to adjust it manually, and installation is a bit more involved. Honestly, I\u2019m okay with that, since it means the XTR remains backward-compatible.

Shimano recommends pairing it with the new derailleur for the best performance but stresses that it\u2019s backward-compatible with existing 12-speed cassettes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For racers, the new 9-45 cassette offers a 500% range\u2014great for saving weight or improving ground clearance. One caveat: because of the tiny 9-tooth cog, you\u2019ll need Shimano\u2019s special TL-LR 021 tool for installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:100.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"1000\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6147\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_6\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_6-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 1 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"customization_via_e-tube_app\"><\/span>Customization via E-Tube App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As with other Di2 systems, all functions can be configured and updated through Shimano\u2019s E-Tube app\u2014a feature I\u2019ve come to really appreciate over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"brakes_small_details_big_impact\"><\/span>Brakes: Small Details, Big Impact<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2-piston brake gets a new low-viscosity oil for better performance at the limits\u2014though it\u2019s not backward-compatible.

The XC wheelset weighs in at under 1300 g\u2014which is impressive for a hooked rim. Shimano\u2019s reputation for durability and quality shines through. I\u2019m curious to see how it stacks up against established options like the DT Swiss XRC 1200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Enduro wheelset features a 30 mm wide hookless carbon rim and stainless steel J-bend spokes. Shimano claims it\u2019s their toughest wheelset yet\u2014built for the hardest Enduro races. That sounds like a solid choice for riders who prioritize durability above all else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"1000\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6133\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_18\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_18-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:50.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"1000\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6135\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_19\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_19-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a02 von 2 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"conclusion_shimano_xtr_m9200_%e2%80%93_a_solid_step_forward_for_racers_and_trail_riders\"><\/span>Conclusion: Shimano XTR M9200 \u2013 A Solid Step Forward for Racers and Trail Riders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new wheels and hubs are sure to perform exceptionally\u2014especially the XC wheelset, which promises to be a real weapon. Of course, the price-to-performance ratio will be an important factor for many racers, and I\u2019m looking forward to seeing how Shimano\u2019s offering compares to long-established competitors like the DT Swiss XRC 1200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The brakes impressed me right from the first test. The new oil brings even more consistency and makes an already excellent brake even better. The 4-piston brake\u2019s design might be a matter of taste, but I\u2019m a fan of the clean cable integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery aligncenter is-style-rectangular\"><div class=\"\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__gallery\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__row\"><div class=\"tiled-gallery__col\" style=\"flex-basis:100.00000%\"><figure class=\"tiled-gallery__item\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14.jpg\" data-lbwps-width=\"1500\" data-lbwps-height=\"1000\" data-lbwps-srcsmall=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-150x100.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=600&#038;ssl=1 600w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=900&#038;ssl=1 900w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1200&#038;ssl=1 1200w,https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-1260x840.jpg?strip=info&#038;w=1500&#038;ssl=1 1500w\" alt=\"\" data-height=\"1000\" data-id=\"6125\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/shimano_xtr_m9200_14\/\" data-url=\"https:\/\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-1260x840.jpg\" data-width=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/news.bike-discount.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Shimano_XTR_M9200_14-1260x840.jpg?ssl=1\" data-amp-layout=\"responsive\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Bild\u00a01 von 1 im Vollbildmodus \u00f6ffnen\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The drivetrain itself delivers what Shimano has always stood for: fast, precise, and reliable shifting performance.
