With a well-adjusted caliper the system seems to keep up with Pad ware perfectly. \u00a0The lever bodies are a little Flexi. That being said they have more breaking power than most people need. I am running 180 mm rotors. I have not experienced any \u00a0brake fade. Even on a long decent. \u00a0More than enough power for trials. They feather nicely. Very linear feel. Makes them great for park riding. \u00a0I would say the stopping power is definitely worth the price you pay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 I grew tired of breaking Shimano Zee calipers. \u00a0So I went with a set of these Magura Mt5 brakes. \u00a0I&#8217;ve been running them now for five or six months.
