david509allen Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 If anyone is wanting a cheaper alternative to magura blood. Get yaself down to a local motor factor and purchase some LHM+ fluid price varies from a fiver upwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david509allen Posted May 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I know that lhm+ fluid is the same oil magura use only difference is that it does not have the blue or red dye in it and is a lot cheaper per litre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Thing is with minerel oil is there is no standard with it unlike dot fluid. So using lhm will void your warranty unlike royal blood. May as well use water haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I know that lhm+ fluid is the same oil magura use only difference is that it does not have the blue or red dye in it and is a lot cheaper per litre LHM has higher viscosity than MRB resulting in stickier brake lever.
