Magura MT7 brakes are SUPER stoppers!

- Magura MT7 brakes installed on the 2020 Kenevo by the team at Berkshire Cycles. They are a super powerful 4 piston brake. Single piece forged aluminium callipers with new MDR-P discs paired with Loic Bruni levers for the complete package!
Brakes cost about £150 each (can hunt around for deals!) and the Loic Bruni levers andMDR-P rotors are added extras.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL - Took a couple of weeks out now BACK! Looking forward to 2020 ebike antics! What you guys got planned? Bikes / Upgrades / Trips?
I love my MT7s. I'm an hc3 lever guy though, so much so, that I even put the hc3 levers on my wife's MT5s. Turns out the hc3 levers fit on all the Magura brakes, even though Magura claims they don't. Great brakes. More powerful than codes and saints, and the modulation is somewhere between sram and shimano brakes.
I’m using my MT7 with HC3 Levers, metallic pads and Hope floating rotors for over two years now. Best brakes I have ever owned. Super easy to bleed, super powerful, tons of modulation👍🏻👍🏻
Another great video Rob, certainly my number one choice for brakes...
I just purchased the specialized Turbo levo s works. I upgraded the brakes to the magura mt7 anniversary breaks with a 220 mm front rotor and a 203 in the back... Under most circumstances their whisper quiet and modulate beautifully, however when it gets really steep and I have to dig into the brakes deeply for more stopping power, they shutter like crazy, until the bike finally comes to a stop. The bike shop has worked on these breaks, and tried everything that they know to get them to function properly, I'm confident that the technicians know the ins and outs of how to make these brakes work properly however they have been unsuccessful, and they've had my bike now going on the second week. No amount of cleaning the discs, sanding down the pads, and attempting to bed the pads in properly, or checking the mounting adapters has proved to solve the problem. I spent more money to have what I thought would be the best breaks in the whole wide world with maximum stopping power and performance and modulation, and they have turned out to be the worst breaking experience I have ever experienced in the last 30 years of cycling. Any suggestions?
The first thing I done on the Levo was changed the brakes to Magura Mt7s the difference is night and day the performance is outstanding change the lever to single finger for more personal adjustment and they look good. One word of note is if you do get a local LBS to fit them make sure they are fully knowledgeable in Magura it makes hell of a difference. As I found out. I am sure you will love them Rob.
Damn straight they are! I’ve been trying to tell everyone about magura for years and surprisingly few people take it on board.
Happy new year rob. They look really nice on plush looking. Picking my e150rs up in few days cnt wait.
Was riding magura on my previous (e-) MTB. Running Code R now... I miss te MT's. Hopefully 2020 Will bring me back... I am hoping for that Radon 8.0. Yr last vid on that made me want it🤤
Hi Rob, really like the channel.
Nice! Love my MT7s and MT5s. I find that they really come to life only when they get really hot in super long downhills. That’s when they really shine.
Hi Rob the new disc rotors are great extra in the emtb world the ergonomic of the brakes also but the constant correct working of brakes is a no go. Should you not try Hope brakes in time of brexit?
Just picked up my 2020 Levo comp. I upgraded the brakes to Code RSCs and put the charger 2.1 damper / 160mm air spring in the fork. First ride will be tomorrow! 😀
Hi Rob. How do you mount the dropper lever and shift lever to these MT7:s? I have the 2020 Kenevo Expert with OEM Code R brakes and noticed that dropper/shift levers are mounted directy to the brakes. I'm about to order the MT7:s but I'm unsure about this.
I wonder how they fare, compared to the Shimano Saints I installed in place of the SRAM Guider RE ( it is night and day, no comparison ).
How do the LB levers compare to the hc3?
I have been deciding between the magura mt7s and the hope tech 3 e4.... I think I'm gonna go with the magura brakes....
I've fitted mt7 raceline to my stumpjumper and they were easy to fit and bleed in my opinion compared to the old guide r's I took off
Hi Rob, are you using the pads that came with the MT7 brakes?
MTs r really lovely.
