I'm replacing M810's which are just a bit shagged after 6 years of abuse, rear caliper has a small leak, just needs constantly bled.
So before I just buy XTs (m785's are only £60 an end), is anyone using Zee?
They look like the love child of new Deore levers and old M810 calipers?

XTs are currently £95/pair (exc. rotors) at [url= http://www.merlincycles.com/shimano-xt-m785-disc-brakeset-special-offer-pair-85375.html ]Merlin[/url] in case you haven't spotted them..
Zee are great - heavier than the rest (but who cares) but some serious stopping power compared to even SLX/XT and to my mind less on/off.
iirc the Zee weight penalty is only 50g an end. I've got SLXs and Zees on the go, Zees are the ones I'd buy again

Love my Zee's. Been a fan of shimano brakes for years, these are the best since the original XT 4 pots imo.
I won't be going back to normal 2 pot shimano in a hurry.

Yes I spotted it but Merlin have none in stock.

Interesting, one of the reason I like the old M810's it that they felt a bit less on / off than XTs (more pistons I suppose)
I got mine from summit to sea in anglesey.
£95 a pair for the xt silver models.
Good service and full boxed kit, finned pads, spares etc.

Cheers for that!
