About this product
The Shimano XT BR-M732 cantilever brake set is a vintage component designed for 80s mountain bikes. This aluminum brake set includes both front and rear brakes, in a silver finish, and is compatible with Shimano Deore LX systems. It's an original equipment part from Japan, suitable for those restoring or maintaining classic mountain bikes that utilize cantilever braking systems.
Our take
For anyone restoring an 80s mountain bike, these Shimano XT BR-M732 cantilever brakes are a perfect period-correct component. The silver aluminum construction is classic Shimano XT, known for its durability and performance back in the day. Getting a complete front and rear set is convenient, and their compatibility with Deore LX means they'll integrate smoothly into many vintage Shimano setups. While cantilever brakes are not as powerful as modern disc brakes, they are precisely what you'd expect for an old-school MTB build. This set is a solid choice for maintaining historical accuracy.
