*CORRECTION: Deore brake calipers although different in terms of the type of hose port, they offer very similar stopping power. The pistons are not ceramic like XTs, so possible that they overheat faster. They also come stock with resin pads (that also are not finned), which also adds to lesser braking power, which was likely what I was feeling! Otherwise, XT levers are just way more adjustable, but the internals are apparently the same
