Search results for query: Installing Magura brakes

I was chatting with the bike mechanic at Mammoth Mountain bike park about bleeding Magura MT brakes. I wanted an "earlier" bite point than what I could get with the MT7 adjusters and HC3 lever adjusters. The normal bleed procedure calls for removing the pads and using the Transport Device...

That makes me feel a bit better about installing the Magura. However I’ve just realized I have bh90 hose on there so a pair of 6120 calipers may be an easier option could you possibly give me a quick rundown of dropping the motor? Is the chainring lock reverse thread?

That's some spec, did you get it as a frame only option or did you spend a day ripping all the standard stuff off? (Normally what I do) Those bars look interesting, I like the back sweep, it may be useful for me coming back from injury to try something like that?

Somes news, i received a new hub for free. Even if it wasn't under guaranty anymore ! I had my whellbuilder build back the whell, and i'm riding again ! I have the 72° headset, and the aenomally switchgrade to install, and will report. I still don't like the Magura MT8 brakes. The braking is...

Just picked up 2 Moro's from myself and my wife. Absolutely in love! We put almost 60 miles of singletrack on them in the first week and a half! Mods so far are not much, PNW grips and pedals, Maxxis high roller 2 rear and DHF front tubeless(the stock tires are surprisingly thin), and I swapped...

Weird, i thought i replied to to this but it seems like i must have not hit reply I've still got patience, wont need the motor in the next 2 months i think in case it really does end up taking a long time i may ask dengfu to switch it to a 500w if possible Finally got the bike on wheels, Still...

Thank you @thaeber , I think you are using Magura brakes. I would also like to install Magura MT5e brakes with MDR-P 203mm disc on both wheels. What adapters do I need in this case? My fork will be rockshox lyrik ultimate 27.5" 160mm.

First ride on the wild today and I was not disappointed. The only other e-bike I’ve ever ridden is a Rocky Mountain Instinct power play but I have been riding mtb since the late 80’s. This bike is amazingly fun! I don’t feel like it gives anything up to the Rocky on power and I prefer how it...

I only run the Magura rotors, but Shimano Saint brakes. Front 220, Rear 203. Front adapter will be PM 160 - PM 203, rear You need PM 180 - PM 203 mm. There are many options to buy those adapters from, they are quite common. Take the cheepest ones, no need to spend loads of money on fancy milled...

It’s good to see different cockpit setups. There seems to be a product available for most individual preferences and style of riding. I don’t think one is better than the other, because if it works …it works. 🤷‍♂️ My near vision is not the best, so a phone mounted for maps is useless to me. I...

I have a 2019 Turbo Levo FSR. The base mounts (with no adapter) are 180mm. That's all that matters for choosing what the correct adapter you need. You can use this chart: Redirect Notice (from here : MAGURA | Bike & Motorcycle Brakes ) My bike had 200mm front/200mm rear, with SRAM Level T...

Can anyone tell me where I can get the custom Yoke to put a 215x60mm Rear Shock on my E10V2? I found offset bushings, I am not very mechanically inclined and I ride hard. Single track downhill. I need to be sure I will get full travel without it striking against the seat post. I am in the...

Hi all, I am going to convert to MT7 brakes. Can I use the shimano brakelines wich are already installed? So just calipers and brake master swap. Thanx Ron

Its actually very simple. The RM is one of the easiest bikes to work on with internal routing. My suggestion would be to invest a little up front in the park tool cable/hose pulling kit and get jagwire universal hose and the correct banjo adapter for your saints. Remove the drive side cover...

After the initial install and full bleed of MT7’s brakes, a mini-bleed(master cylinder) may occasionally be necessary. A mini-bleed process is a good opportunity to clean the calliper and pistons. These are some of the tools that I use for a mini-bleed and/or piston cleaning. I’ve never had a...

For saddle I found a new old stock display unit full carbon fiber MTB saddle past gen Selle Repente with Comptus 4.0 pad on eBay for cheap. https://www.sellerepente.com/en/collections/selle-mtb Pumped the dropper post with air and installed the saddle For brakes I decided to use...

Anyone had disc rotors and/or brakes upgrades? I just installed the Magura MT Trail Sport brakes on my E1 and kept the default Shimano disc rotors (both 203mm). Haven’t tried the bike yet. I was wondering how to match new disc rotors? Got confused at Shimano’s website looking for components...

This technical article is the second installment in a two part series on Shimano brake systems. Refer to “Part # 1: Shimano Brake System Service”, for information on bleeding and servicing Shimano brakes and brake pad compounds...

Hello everyone. I'm asking for help. i installed 220mm rotors front and rear. i used magura qm45 adapters but i didn't get it right. the brake pad is not the entire surface on the rotor, on the front part at the rear brake and on the upper part at the front brake the plate is outside the...

Dicko70, That's a beautiful ride! I own a Levo Carbon Comp and love the bike, it's such a capable ride. Both SRAM and Shimano brakes systems work equally well. To work well, they have to be maintained and set up correctly with a few minor modifications. The SRAM Code R brakes are a really...
