Shimano America Shimano LX Dual Control Lever, Caliper & Rotor Kit - Hydraulic - REAR - 2008

This Shimano LX Dual Control package simplifies not only your rear controls, but your bike-building efforts as well.

If you are throwing a new Shimano wheelset on your XC rig, upgrading an old commuter, or just starting from scratch and seeking a killer deal on prebuilt controls, you can’t go wrong with this kit. *REAR ONLY, front sold separately.

Bottom Line: Taking the hassle out shifting, braking, and component matching.

It will but you will need to buy a 6-bolt rotor in addition to the kit if you don't already have one. Or buy a M495 hub with centerlock, actually can be cheaper if you can build a wheel.Shimano XT 6-bolt rotor:http://www.backcountry.com/store/SHI0107/Shimano-America-XT-Disc-Brake-Rotor-6-Bolt.html

Will these brakes fit Saint hubs? Thanks Nathan. If you're still out there, can I just get a Saint rotor and use these brakes with the rotor? And thanks again....

It depends on which generation of saint hubs. The original Saint hubs (labeled M800) used a bigger than normal centerlock system. I believe the newer saint hubs (M810) have the same centerlock system as these brakes.

Maybe, this only works if you have a centerlock hub on your wheelset, usually meaning you have Shimano wheels. If you have a 6-bolt hub on your wheel this kit will not accommodate a centerlock rotor. You will have to buy a 160mm 6-bolt rotor here on backcountry too:http://www.backcountry.com/store/SHI0107/Shimano-America-XT-Disc-Brake-Rotor-6-Bolt.html?CMP_ID=SH_FRO001&CMP_SKU=SHI0107&mv_pc=r126

Most of the newer frames have the tabs so disk brakes can be installed, so depending on your bike you should be able to.Like Chris said, you'll need some disc mounts on your frame and fork. You also need hubs that are disc compatible and if you'll be using the rotors that are included with this set, you'll need hubs that accommodates center lock rotors. KC
