According to the product specialist
Pros
| Incredible stopping power. |
| Great value for money when it comes to enduro brakes. |
| Can be combined with all types of Magura rotors. |
| The Shimano XT M8100 MTB brakes are fully customisable. |
| The total weight of 573 grams is low for a brake set. |
| These Shimano brakes have a sharp bite point, so they engage quickly and strongly. |
| These brakes provide good braking power in all conditions. |
| The double pistons further increase braking power. |
Cons
| Perhaps too powerful when paired to large rotors. |
| Not suitable for rougher Enduro action. |
| These brakes are heavier than the XT single piston brakes. |
