About this product
Is the Shimano Alivio BL-MT200 the Right Rear Hydraulic Brake for Your Build?
The Shimano Alivio BL-MT200 is an entry-level hydraulic disc brake for flat-bar MTB and hybrid bikes, sold here as the rear-specific set. Hydraulic actuation delivers consistent stopping power and better modulation than cable disc or rim brakes, and the BL-MT200 brings that performance to an accessible price point for recreational and entry-level trail riders. The right-hand lever is designed for flat bars with adjustable reach to fit a range of hand sizes, and the post-mount caliper suits standard MTB rear dropouts and hanger configurations.
Sold as rear lever and post-mount rear caliper set. Shimano specifies SM-BH59-JK-SS hose for this brake. Uses Shimano mineral oil hydraulic fluid. Compatible with standard Shimano hydraulic MTB brake systems. A practical, affordable hydraulic rear brake for entry and mid-range MTB builds.
