I already said, the bike shop in Malaysia really got problem.

The photo I show you now, above set ( group set ) need to pay except the goat link (free gift), below sets (rotos and tools) all are free gift.

All bought online, no need any relation, no need know who is boss.

Just notice MT420 and MT520 different around RM70+/-

Don't know worth to get MT520 which 10% more power than MT420 and got SERVOWAVE technology.

If looking to the lever design, I prefer the MT520.
It is more suitable for 1 finger braking in my opinion.

What do you intend to use this brake for? XC or for Downhill Trail?
If XC, 2 pot brake is enough I think.

Yes, you are correct, MT520 can use as 1 finger even it is state as 2 finger size.

My current brake set will migrate to another hard tail, so I plan to get a new brake set. Looking around M615 M6000 but after survey just notice Shimano got release this MT520 MT420. The price so attractive.

Just I not sure the MT420 piston is ceramic or not, MT520 is ceramic type.
