Braking like Danny MacAskill?
The HC3 brake lever, specially co-developed by the trail ace as part of the Magura MT7 Danny MacAskill Edition, is now available as a one-off for retrofitting. This shorter and highly customizable lever allows every rider to perfectly adjust their personal braking feel.
The HC3 brake lever can be retrofitted to Magura MT6, MT7, MT8 and MT Trail Carbon brakes. For a safe conversion, Magura recommends having the installation carried out by a specialist dealer. With the Reach Adjust with a SW3 Allen key, the lever can be individually adjusted to hand size or personal preferences. With the Ratio Adjust with Torx T25, the braking force can be adjusted by changing the mechanical transmission ratio. This results in the right braking force for every surface: on grippy surfaces there is a high gear ratio and therefore high braking power. On slippery surfaces, for example wet or muddy, a small gear ratio and therefore better modulation.
MT Trail Sport: the little sister
A new brake anchor is rolling into Magura's portfolio: with the new MT Trail Sport, the Swabians are expanding the MT family and the successful MT Trail concept - four pistons at the front and two pistons at the rear.
One year after the MT Trail Carbon, Magura is launching its little sister, the MT Trail Sport. "The 4/2 piston concept has proven itself for the All-Mountain Enduro classes and the rapidly growing e-mountainbikes. Our customers also wanted to use this model in other price classes. So the next logical step for us was to develop the MT Trail Sport," explains Martin Schneider, Product Manager at Magura. The new stopper weighs 255 grams at the front and 230 grams at the rear wheel. Braking is done with mineral oil, as it should be for Magura, and shift levers can also be easily and simply attached to the brake lever using the company's own clamps.
