Evening chaps.
I need a right hand lever (just the lever/blade) for my M8000 brakes and have found one on eBay. - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shimano-Deore-XT-BL-M785-R-Right-Brake-Lever-Member-Unit-BL-M8000-M7000-usable/274636038240?hash=item3ff1956060:g:kIAAAOSw9uhfu8aA
As you can see it is marked at M785 which is the older type but they mention M8000 in the title, before I purchase it does anyone know if they are the same lever?
Struggling to find one otherwise.
Thanks
does anyone know if they are the same lever?
It's a "b" match so will work but may differ in materials, appearance, finish, size etc

SJS have stock of M8000 lever blade.
Did you sort this?
Got a M785 and a M8000 in my spares and they are the same shape, but different finish and the M8000 have dimples that the older version don’t. I took photos
Wouldn’t bother me if I could only get the 785 but then I run a Zee front XTR rear on one bike 😊
