5murf Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Yes i understand that i shouldn't use Trials-UK now But i would still like some confirmation on the V-Brake to HS33 adapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Scarlet Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Am i right in thinking that if i buy these i will be able to put HS33's on my frame that only supports V's?Yes it will work, but are a real bitch to stop from moving.I would try and look for Maguras old "Evo 1" mounting system, its practically the same mechanism but the slave cylinders are independent over each other, and can't physically move outwards as the frame works as a stop against the post on the mount.The Evo2 mounting system is terrible as they have a mounting plate which essential makes the brakes one unit, and with the quickrelease mechanism you get nothing but movement (with both cylinders, one pivots, the other slides on the quick release bolt).My personal opinion would be, that for V brake mounts, just use a good V brake, works just as well as a Magura as ultimately it is the pads you use and rim set-up that defines how good a brake it is, and a V brake works out cheaper.

With the standard V Brakes i don't think it would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the standard V Brakes i don't think it would work.I'm not convinced that it will work with Magura's either unfortunately... Someone like Adam at Tartybikes would be able to answer that in a second though! Good luck . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
