Unless you need more modulation which i disc would offer you just stick with your maggie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boswell Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 I would say go for a disk, i wouldn't buy a magura louise as i have one and have had some problems with it latley, go for a Hope mono a lot of my mates have them or have used them in the past and i havn't heard a bad word about them yet.

missionmod Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 I would say stick with a magie. they prower full, if your side hoping you not as likely to smash it. Like with a disk you have the changes of bending it. Also you have a lot of stress on the forks with a disk. My opioion would be stick with a magie liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hI-OOPS-CAPS Posted May 17, 2007 Report Share Posted May 17, 2007 They've done me well, although i havent gave a disc much tryout. With a rim grind the power is increased and there is still modulation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearded Midget Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Forget that go for an avid bb7 they are well cheaper and just as powerful. they sell hope monos for £60 on ebay and it works out more to build a 160mm avid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Anscombe Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) i have run both.......a maggie on the front is verry powerfull.....with some decent pads with or with out a grind/tar........after a while i got fed up of a front maggie due to if you have 2 travel around on your bike ......going down a hill using your front brake kills your ears........so i went to disc........much better.........i would also say get a bb7....easy to maintain /silent ...and best of all its super power and performancebut really its up 2 you........run witch ever you wish ......we dont know what u like the feel of/dont know your riding style bla bla bla ect ect ect Edited May 18, 2007 by mrkoxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
