cleep2 Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Is it possible to run a magura mt7 calliper with a normal magura brake lever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ Leigh Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 depends on the lever i guess but more than likely i'd say yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dman Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Clarify normal, if you mean rim brake id say no. Also shimano levers have been tried with the magura calipers but didn't work right so im told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many MTB riders swapped the MT5/7 levers with Shimano 810/820 levers and couldn't be happier. @Martin Direske did this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niconj Posted October 8, 2016 Report Share Posted October 8, 2016 I'll put some 810 or 665 levers on there as soon as possible. The Magura ones are horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Heard Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 On mine I'm running an mt7 calliper with an mt6 lever. It works perfectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
