Magura Or Dengura?

Denguras are cnc'ed like a B*sterd smooth and everything sure they look nice. There supposibly ment to leak. But you could possibly be F*cked when it comes to replacing stuff for them etc.....

Id stay original and use a hs33.

I dislike denguras only rich people have them.

^ That statement is bollocks :P

Go for a Magura with a Deng lever blade.

much better than a dengura! but not as good as a 04 maggie with a rb or fresh products lever witch is 10 times stronger! (Y)

Magura.

Denguras are wank. The lever feel is somewhat similar to a shit v brake with a plastic lever.

VERY TRUE!

if it is anything like the frame he snet one of the local lads last week it will probably compromise of the following:

Dengura CNC'd body, sprayed blue (still wet though!) with a magura hs33 lever blade and tpa, also sprayed blue and still tacky, wrapped in bubble wrap to give maximum efficiency for bubble wrap look.

Sorry i had to say that, that did happen to a frame but it did tickle me a bit. (hope no1 takes offence to it)

Dengura's are nice, if the lever is bled up properly and the feel is pretty sweet. only downfall, i would critisize the pistons, as they are not as easily adjustable as magura hs33 1's. there is deffinatly a bit more leverage on the dengura lever blade.

From what i understand about dengura is they are only meant to be bled with oil, bleeding with water is why they leak and go poo. I'm sure they would feel just the same as a magura with the right bleed a.k.a oil not water.

that's not true.

i've seen some dengura brakes bleded with water runing awesome!

i forgot to say my favourite: Magura Race-line 2003 :P

i have been using a combination of the both to be honest, using magura pistons with dengura lever because i was snapping lots of levers off with my hands when i was ridin :unsure: so with the deng lever it is a beast now and i have the reasurance that it won't snap neither good stuff.!!

I have never had a Dengura but from my experience of my friends that have one............ not worth the hassle and money, they can be just as good as a Magura (when working) but never better they both have weakness's and strengths.

Deng-

CNC to shit

Look awesome

The TPA eats itself

Leak.... alot

Expensive

Magura

Tried and tested (Y)

IMO look as good

Easier to repair

Cheaper

Some might say look horrible

So in my own personal opinion i would go for a Magura they are tried and tested and so easy to maintain and so much cheaper......
