rickbury1985 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hi Im looking at getting some maguras and ive found a pair of magura hs33 black for around £80 new and was wondering what the differance is between these and racelines as even on ebay these are selling for a similar price considering the fact they are up to 10 years old. Is it that the hs33 black are cable as opposed to hydrolic? If anybody uses these could you please advise. They are listed as magura hs33 black and also white. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Race lines are rare,that´s why they are expensive(relatively), also some people prefer them for their durability. All HS brakes are hydraulic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials hoe Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 as above all hs series maggies are hydraulic, they came in 'editions' like tomac (red) raceline (yellow) ect. but its just colour they're all the same underneath.

rickbury1985 Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Well thats cleared that up then, i did presume that they were hydrolic but was struggling to understand the differance in price. Thanks for responding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onza pro series guy Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 what other special editions were there, I'm sure I've seen some green ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials hoe Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) green frog, blue and orange too. there was only one 'special edition' version i can think was the black cylinders and gold levers, olympia i think?. all the others were different colours just with fancy names, i could be wrong though.

BradJohnson Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 There was also quick sliver. But yeah all Hs brakes are hydraulic, I'm not sure what Hs actually means, I place my bet on hydraulic system. But I have no ide where they plucked the numbers from. There was hs11 hs12 and hs33. And thats all as far as i'm aware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grant wildman Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) And HS44, 66, and 77, apparently. Off topic slightly , but they also make these RT8TT'S . Was working on some this week . showing my age but they also made a HS22 and HS24. Edited January 14, 2013 by grant wildman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trials hoe Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 the hs22 to. i remember the hs11's from the 04 era, they were absolute gash and made of plastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 The RT8TT is cool, that's a bit like the HS77. I had a HS22 lever once actually. It was shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grant wildman Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 The RT8TT is cool, that's a bit like the HS77. I had a HS22 lever once actually. It was shit. Yeah basically a new revised version of the 77. was the first drop bar lever hydraulic brake . Indeed they were shit, over sized and under powered, never got the point of them , maybe price point . They ran a different size master cylinder piston to the 33's and required to use a hs22/24 specific slave to accommodate the different push of fluid (if my memory serves me correctly ).
