Magura MT8 Brake - News

The Magura Mission Performance website released some information on their new MT8 brake today. No data on weights, nor functional specs as yet.

MT8
The CARBOTECTURE® discbrake

stronger
lighter
ingenious

The goal has been reached. With the MT8, MAGURA presents the most elaborate and best thought through disc brake in the world with a lever from Carbolay® and a Carbotecture® Full Carbon Master, produced in the innovative Carboflow® process.

Measured up to the MAGURA performance factor, we feel that the MT8 is currently the best disc brake on the market. Despite absolutely sensational weight values, where the ultra-light models from the competition have run into problems, we've managed to avoid these with the MT8 - due to Carbotecture SL®.

This brake will be available in the shops from the second quarter of 2011. In advance a limited edition of 888 numbered and signed brakes will be released. More information, technical data and initial feedback from professional testers will appear soon on this Microsite, on Facebook and Twitter. Stay tuned and be one of the first!
