No first hand experience but I'd be 99.9% confident that they'll have an ally body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, a few of the cheap magura disc levers have been plastic over the years, and although this is a shimano, it is a cheap lever so I wanted to find out that it was metal for definite before ordering one.

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Ah, cool beans. Looking at the pics I've found with the reservoir cap removed it certainly looks like cast ally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
