munkee Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 it should be alright for a while depending on which bolt it is and how bad the crack is, but i'd look in to getting a new lever body. Take a look in the for sale section, theres always someone getting rid of them. You wont need to replace the lever, or insides or cable.. just the lever shell since everything can be taken apart easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 I've got quite a few Magura levers in Mark's Magical Magura Bag. All of them have snapped there, from downhill usage. Anyway, if it's cracked there, eventually it'll just snap as you pull the lever or put force through it, meaning the lever will launch out and you'll have no brake power. This isn't shit hot. Try www.chainreactioncycles.com and see if they can help you out with anything, I believe they do Magura spares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvil270183 Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 ive snapped two in the same place, never notice the cracks though..im always doing something and Bang!, lever falls off lol. Rossi has done same afew times i believe, as spacemunkee said, just buy new shell. in my case i just bought a new body from mate, couldnt be bothered changing insides so just whacked lever onto new body and bleed (Y) (with water) :D:):( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 I once over tightened the bolt that holds the lever blade onto the body, and the body snapped (Y) :D :( Well, it cracked, so i got a washer and a few other things and i made it work again, for about 2 months, then it fell apat, sent it off the magura and i got a new lever body for free (cause it was under warrenty) and it was mint again :D Free magura oil bleed aswell :P but it had sooooo much fricken air in!!
