tomtrials Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 lol another thread like this! i prefer the older ones if you can still get them there brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbowen444 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Most people seem to prefer the stiffness of the old (pre 2005) lever but I have the new one with an echo lever blade and it is great. I didn't like the standard blade due to the shape but with the echo blade it is great. Full Echo brake is another option... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Towler Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 I changed back to my 04 few days ago... fed up of re-bleeding my break every week. It is way better than my 05 break was.Also While bleeding mine in the bath I noticed that it took half the time to bleed the 04 break (get all the air out). Towler.

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 Mravka starata race line we ko se 4udi6 tolkova Funnily enough I was thinking exactly the same... I ran the old style ones for a good 6+ years before getting one of the newer style ones. I Broke a lever body on the older style and also went through numerous TPA's. However function was always top notch and lever was comfortable. The newer style ones felt very similar powerwise and feel to me. I did however manage to break a TPA on one of them too... What I would say is that when you break a magura, the material looks similar to an Aero chocolate bar- full of bubbles and just seems very poor grade and badly cast.I haven't tried a Dengura but Sam Wheeler was raving about his on the DJ ride.Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simtradan Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 There isn't much difference between them, i prefer the look of the older generation but the newer version will have more available spares if something goes wrong. to be honest as long you set it up properly and get a set of descent pads then its all good.

MRavKA_TAnkISt Posted May 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 So some say that the old hs33 is beter some that the new what shoud i buy ?Is the new one that bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul@rettotrials Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 old hs33s all the way i think they are well better dontknow if its ture but i think you get more tpa on old ones and even more if you put a bolt in, and i never have problems with it (touch wood) plus they will be cheaper to buy. paul.

little bmxer boy Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 I have the old ones but upgrading to new ones with echo leavers and 74kings tpa’s should be so nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVWOCI WVS Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 i always used to kill the old tpa's, not had any problems with the new brake, but i have to admit the old levers feel nicer, the brake felt great with the magura cnc lever and a good water bleed...reall stiff and solid with a good booster!

MRavKA_TAnkISt Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 So... i will buy the new one and hope to have no problems is that ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James-M Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 I've still got the old ones, still going strong. They seem very efficient, but as has been said, the TPAs tend to die, and the standard Magura bolts (even with the new maggies) will always round off So whatever you get, if I was you I would buy some decent bolts from elsewhere that fit, and bolts rounding off should not be an issue.

Ash-Kennard Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 the 05 and 06 are exactly the samethat is an 05/06they are fine, you dont really have much other choice besides an echo brake though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
