El Cristoff Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 (edited) ones CNC'ed, the other cast. it costs more because it has to be machine CNC'ed, out of a block of aluminuim.the main difference is the feel, the echo feels stiffer and more responsive, but it leaks like a bitch aswell.

Dave Anscombe Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 one leaks the other dont thats the main difference......if u get a dengura.........dont bleed it with water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ladd Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 its all cnc'd...and also you get better quality pads clamps and lever blade there not that much when you compare it to a magura Magura £65 standard pads and clamps..Later you might get decent pads £18 then a blade £25 then clamps £25 so thats £133 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 The Echo brake is of similar value since you get loads of extras with it, but you'll be better off with a Magura. I've come across and sold lots of these brakes, and roughly 90% of them leaked. And the main problem is that once you get used to it, I find it's really difficult to go back to a Maggie.

Alex Dark Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Im not impressed with denguras, based on the couple of times ive used them......they dont seem more powerful, they leak like sieves .the only advantage is the aesthetics, and that lil grub screw that stops the lever blade coming loose!

brick_top Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Leaking, leaking, leaking - it's all about Dengura, happened to mine as well. Go for Magura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
