stobydale Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 In desperate need for a back brake for my not such a bargain bike buy. Could someone tell me please the difference between HS11's and HS33's? My bike is equipped with dedicated 4 bolt mounts, if I were to buy a 2 bolt mount system would it be easy cheap to convert?

josh barker Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 (edited) hs33's have better leavers for example they have the tpa system which is very goodwhy would you want to convert to 2 bolt maggies they are bitches to set up sometimes Edited December 13, 2009 by josh barker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukasMcNeal Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 4 Bolts is when you use clamps and will look similar to this. And without the brake the mounts on the frame will look like thisBut 2 bolt is also know as the evo system, which is so you can have a magura on a vee brake mount.Overall 4 bolt is better and evo (2 bolt) is only for vee frames/forks.Also the Hs33 is better because the lever is better quality and has the "TPA" turbo pad adjuster system which is pretty vital IMO.

stobydale Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Thanks for the replys, very comprehensive Lucas. The frame that I have is an Onza T-Mag, the rear brake set up is a dedicated 4 bolt mount. I don't want to convert to a 2 bolt set up but I have seen for sale, brand new some Magura HS11's for £40, however these look like they have the associated fittings for a 2 bolt system.

LukasMcNeal Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Don't pay that much! on ebay you could get a set of hs33s for a lot less! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyczek Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 don't buy hs 11. It has got 16mm crowd in Lever so it's not strong enough. Hs 33 04 in good condition costs 20-30 pounds per one ( Without 4b clamps ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
