Can anyone help me with the minefield that is shifter/brake lever compatibility and brackets.

I have a set of tech 2 brakes that have been out of action but because they are so good I’m going to get some use out of them and ditch my XT.

What bracket do I need to attach Saint M820 I spec shifter to the tech 2 lever?

Many thanks

looks like HBSP 263 would work

Thanks, I was looking on CRC and it’s confusing as some say I need an XT one and others say XTR and I’m pretty sure they are different for XT and XTR.

Is the M820 more like an XTR?

Sorry looks like it’s the same bracket for XTR and XT so I should be safe. Must have been the old XT that used a different bracket.

Is anyone running one of these 263 brackets and does it offer a good setup it is the shifter in a shite position?

matlockmeat – I think I have an unused set of those at home still packaged, if you are interested …black ano… say a tenner posted?
