Magura MT 4 Disc Brake Set

The MT4 brake stands out thanks to its enhanced braking performance. The innovative technology combines impeccable braking reliability with control. The adjustable lever reach and the ergonomically designed two-finger brake levers allow you to modulate the braking power with pinpoint precision. This makes every trail a pleasure. The Magura MT4 disc brake, featuring a more robust caliper and a swivel hose connection. Significantly cheaper than the MT6 brakes and only 25 grams heavier. The new Magura brakes – MT8, MT6 and MT4 – come factory-fitted with a swivelling hose outlet on the spoke side to prevent damage and allow for neat hose routing on various frame designs.

Magura MT 4 brake lever:

the new MT4 brake levers with Carbontecture Master housing. The Magura MT brake levers can be mounted on the right or left

• Magura Carbotecture: A material newly developed by Magura, consisting of a high proportion of carbon fibres embedded in a thermoplastic matrix. More powerful, more tensile, more flexible and more fracture-resistant than conventional fibre-reinforced plastics or laminated carbon fibre mats. Ideally suited for processing using the Carboflow process.
• Magura Carboflow: A process newly developed by Magura that allows carbon fibres to be optimally aligned with the direction of stress. Produces homogeneous, predictable surfaces. Significant weight savings are possible, as there is no need for oversizing.
• Magura Carbolay: The fibres of the lever are stitched onto a carrier matrix before being coated with resin and cured.

Magura MT 4 brake caliper:

The Magura MT4 brake calipers are forged from a high-performance aluminium alloy and feature the new magnetiXchange brake pistons for easy pad replacement.

• Magura MagneticXchange: the magnetic brake pistons facilitate the fitting of the brake pads
• Magura Anti-Squeal: The combination of a specially formulated brake pad compound and brake disc design counteracts noise during braking.
• Magura Anti-Drag: Newly developed sealing rings and an adapted piston design ensure that, even when used in sub-zero temperatures or extremely muddy conditions, the pistons always return to their original position and do not rub against the disc.
• Magura Anti-Heat: The entire MT brake caliper system is designed to dissipate heat quickly into the surrounding environment, preventing a drop in performance.
• Magura RHR: The new Magura brakes, MT8, MT6 and MT4, come factory-fitted with a swivelling hose outlet on the spoke side to prevent damage and allow for neat hose routing on various frame designs.

Post Mount Caliper Standard:

The Post Mount caliper standard was developed for MTB disc brakes. The bolt spacing for mounting the calipers is 74 mm. This is why the standard is also known as Post Mount 74. These calipers can be mounted directly depending on the frame/fork mount and disc size. For larger discs and/or IS2000 mounts, an adapter is required. You will find these adapters and mount types listed below.

Magura Royal Blood:

Magura continues to rely on high-performance mineral oil as the brake fluid. It is completely harmless to health in the event of skin contact and, as it does not absorb moisture over time like DOT fluid, bleeding intervals are significantly longer. For optimal performance, bleeding is required every 6–12 months, depending on frequency of use.
