Dave Sutton Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) Just to let you guys know do not buy the echo TR rim brakes if you are going to use them on magura evo's they do not fit, they clamp a 42mm wheel solid i have had this problem so i am sending it back on monday and getting a magura has anyone else had this problem. Only get them for 4 bolt. Edited January 30, 2010 by wc99wcc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyBazz (: Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 FOR GODS SAKE. Stop posting useless topics! Tarty said it would fit, and why would they lie to you? Your probably doing something wrong.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 That's because the Evo mounts are massively offset inwards, forcing the pads into the rim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borat Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 What pads are you running, your a n00b to maggies anyway. So why don't you get someone who actually knows what they are doing to set it up right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Of course they fit Evo mounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TROYston Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 So, if you but a Magura it will not fit in Magura evo clamps, that means that you only get Magura clamps for Magura brakes and echo clamps for echo brakes,,,,, Fail. A lot of useless posts with no real answer apart from your retarded seem to be being made by you recently. Listen to the tf members for advice. Tittybikes would not lie, and its common sense really. but ill swap you my Magura 05 for your echo if you wish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 echo cylinders do fit magur calmps (evo 2 ones included) but you need the plastic C clip like you would get on a magura. Also, if its not fitting due to the rim width (your post was a bit unclear to what was the actual problem) then a magura won't be any closer to fitting.

isitafox Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 if its not fitting due to the rim width (your post was a bit unclear to what was the actual problem) then a magura won't be any closer to fitting. Just what I was going to say, your either gonna have to get the Tensile offset mounts and adapt them to fit the evo adaptors or shave say 2.5-3mm off each pad, that should work and still give you plenty of meat on the pads. Other than that its disc time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6ft-midget Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Just out of interest, what forks are you running? If you've got narrow forks with a wide rim that might be the problem, not the brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
