Reviews

Delayed but high quality

"They arrived late, but the quality is very good—I recommend buying them."

— Lorenzo B. (4/5)

Perfect. It's the day

"Perfect. It's like night and day compared to the Srams."

— Benjamin C. (5/5)

Very good

"Installed on the front and rear of a tandem bike. Chosen for the length of the hose. The installation went very smoothly, and braking performance is satisfactory with 203mm rotors."

— Jean-Paul V. (5/5)

Great!

"Smooth and powerful braking after the break-in period. I should have swapped out my SRAM brakes sooner! The only thing is that the derailleur trigger (SRAM X0) doesn't have quite enough adjustment range when mounted with the Matchmaker."

— FREDERIC G. (5/5)

plastic lever

"The levers aren't great for enduro use; they're made entirely of plastic. The first time I bled the brakes after installation, the bleed screw stripped, even though I hadn't tightened it. The braking isn’t great compared to my old Formula brakes. The caliper is bulkier than most brakes, so it won’t fit if the brakes are mounted between the rear triangle’s seat stays."

— Manu341 (2/5)

Effective brakes

"It was easy to install; I cut the cable to length just like in the tutorials. In short, everything went smoothly."

— Chantilly (5/5)

excellent brake

"Excellent performance, powerful and durable brakes, hose length adjustment kit included; minimalist installation instructions, so the tutorial is essential"

— Papsdesalpes (4/5)

It's finally slowing down!!!

"Finally, brakes worthy of the name!!! Switched from Trp Quadriem 4 to Magura. No regrets—they’re smooth, have a great lever feel, and bite hard. I recommend this model. Tested them over 100 km since installation."

— Androtech (5/5)

Great brakes

"Quick and easy installation, powerful brakes, length-adjustment kit included"

— Alain31 (5/5)

Perfect for hiking in the mountains.

"Easy to install and bleed, excellent braking performance, and easy to modulate. The only minor drawback is the plastic half-clamp on the brake lever, which is fragile: be careful when tightening it."

— Linouchet (5/5)
