Review: Strong Inexpensive Entry Level Disc Brake Calipers - I decided to upgrade my MTB & the brakes were one system I felt deserved an upgrade. I originally had V-brakes, wanted to try disc brakes & felt a pair of SHIMANO M375 Brake Calipers were a good entry level choice. The M375 calipers come w/the mounting bolts (pre thread lockered), washers & brake pads. The installation was straightforward & simple. I installed w/180mm Shimano XT SM-RT86 rotors in both the front & rear. For the front fork, I used a Shimano SM-MA90 post to post adapter & in the rear, a Shimano SM-MA-R180 IS to post adapter. With this setup, the M375’s work awesome. After a couple test rides & adjustments, the braking is strong, even when wet (unlike wet V-brakes). The M375 calipers have 1 moving (outside) pad & 1 stationary (inside) pad when the lever is squeezed. I’ve read & watched some instructionals that recommend placing a credit card or thin shim between the stationary pad & rotor when mounting. Although this works, I found this is not necessary. When mounting the calipers, I installed the bolts hand tight, allowing the calipers to move. I then squeezed the brake lever, this allowed the caliper to adjust itself on the mount, aligning to rotor. I then tightened the mounting bolts, securing the caliper. This will cause the stationary pad to rub the rotor. At the inside of the caliper, if you look through your wheel from the opposite side, you’ll see an adjustment bolt for the stationary pad. I backed off the pad w/the adjustment bolt 1 click at a time, until the wheel spun freely w/out rub. This allows for forward adjustment of the pad as it wears down in the future. Just my 2 cents. If your converting from V (rim) brakes, don’t forget to order/buy new brake cables. Your brake lines are most likely too short to reach the new position of the brake calipers. If you’re looking for an inexpensive entry level mechanical disc brake system, I can recommend the Shimano M375 calipers as a great option. Thank you for taking the time to read my review, I hope you found it helpful. ## Features - Cable actuated - Constructed from durable, lightweight aluminum material to offer a balanced combination of strength and reduced weight for efficient performance on rugged trails. - Features B01S resin pads that provide consistent stopping power, quiet operation, and easy replacement, making maintenance straightforward and cost-effective. - Compatible with linear-pull MTB levers and designed for use with standard post mount frames and forks, providing versatile upgrade options for your braking system. - A sleek black finish complements various bike styles, while the single 74mm caliper ensures effective modulation and controlled braking in diverse trail conditions. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00F390ZW6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #44,653 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #2 in Bike Brake Calipers | | Brand Name | SHIMANO | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,570 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04524667720980 | | Included Components | Disc Brake Calipers | | Item Highlight | Pads | | Item Weight | 0.2 kg | | Manufacturer | Shimano | | Manufacturer Part Number | FBA_EBRM375MPRL | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Limited Warranty | | Material Type | Multi | | Model Number | EBRM375MPRL | | Number of Items | 1 | | UPC | 737080647237 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SHIMANO - **Color:** Black - **Material:** Multi - **Number of Pieces:** 1 - **Product Dimensions:** 5.5"L x 4.25"W x 2.75"H ## Images ![M375 Brake Caliper 2017 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-PbXEJ5zL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent upgrade! *by J***E on September 29, 2026* Purchased these calipers to replace the factory junk ones that came on my Amyet EB26 e-bike.

It's short for End Over End, and it's when you brake (or hit something) so hard with your front wheel that your rear wheel leaves the ground. Usually this results in you flipping over the handlebars, which is where the name comes from. However, if you have a good enough brake (both in terms of stopping power, and control of that power) you can control the Endo, and lift your rear wheel without flipping over. That is the fastest way to stop a bike, period, because you can't apply more braking power to the front without flipping, and the rear wheel is off the ground so braking harder with it won't do anything. In a controlled Endo, you are applying maximum braking power for your bike's geometry and speed, so getting a stronger brake won't help you, it'll only make you flip over the bars faster. This brake lets me Endo in a controlled manner, reliably. Therefore, this brake is good enough that a better one won't actually stop me any faster. It's not the most powerful, but it really doesn't need to be. In other news, it doesn't squeak much, is easy to align/trim, and the pads last for ages, even with daily stop and go city traffic. Now, that said, there's a very important thing you should know about this brake. The cable attachment mechanism has a flaw. When your pads are running (very) low, the knob on the side that the cable pulls on to activate the brake can rotate far enough backwards that the cable flexes the opposite way, at its attachment point to the knob. It's hard to explain in words, but if you have this brake, take the wheels off your bike and pull the cable as far as you can, you'll see the flex point, right where the cable end is bolted to the brake. That flex point means that, if you don't replace the pads when they wear down, your cable will bend back and forth to the point of snapping. I had both cables, front and rear, snap on the same day, because I brake evenly with front and back to distribute wear. So, once a month, give your brakes a good pull while looking at the calipers, and make sure that flex isn't happening. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shimano M375 Post Mount Brake Caliper Black 2016 - Brake Pads Shimano B01S Brake pad Set, 2 Pairs - Shimano SM-RT56 Disc Brake Rotor 6-Bolt (160-mm) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/21930298-m375-brake-caliper-2017](https://www.desertcart.be/products/21930298-m375-brake-caliper-2017) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-09*
