Shimano SLX RT66 Brake Rotor

The Shimano SM-RT66 160mm brake rotor is a reliable choice from the SLX and Deore groups, designed for mountain bikers who demand consistent braking power in all conditions. This rotor uses the universal 6-hole (6-bolt) mounting system, making it compatible with a wide range of wheel hubs. The 160mm diameter is ideal for cross-country use or as a rear rotor, where a good balance between weight and braking power is important. The design is robust and durable, made from high-quality stainless steel that can withstand heat and intensive use.

What sets this brake rotor apart is its versatility and the clever design of the braking surface. The cutouts in the rotor not only reduce weight but also effectively shed mud and water, keeping your brake pads cleaner longer and maintaining their grip. Unlike some cheaper models, the SM-RT66 is suitable for both organic (Resin) and sintered (Metal) brake pads. This gives you the freedom to choose the brake pads that best suit your riding style.

The rotor comes complete with mounting bolts and anti-loosening washers, which prevent the bolts from vibrating loose during cycling. Installation is quick and easy with a Torx wrench. Whether you are replacing your worn brake rotors or building a new wheelset, with the Shimano SM-RT66 you choose proven quality and safety at a competitive price.
