  1. The 2005 levers were a totally new design to magura so surely there going break some way or another,

    were as with the 04 brakes, they are the same design as the previous products, so they managed

    to make them stronger as the years go by. but with this newer design they've only sold this for a year now

    so they've got next year to over come the problems with it.

    it also depends whether you like the feel of the levers too.

    if it was me personally i would go for the 04 brake because,

    • its easier to bodge
    • looks gud

    i have got the 05 brake and have had many problems with the tpa and the only solution to this is buy a new lever or get one specially made.

    i prefer the 05 to the 04 for the feel and looks but if i hadn't of got it on my bike i probably would of bought the 04 brake set

    hope this helps you (Y)

  2. to be honest, i would go for the koxx reds, the life of those pads are just amazing! their expensive though, so if you don't want to be splashing out on expensive pads,i reconmend MaJic pads or heatsink reds, their not far off the koxx bloxx. i'm running MaJic pads and their perfectly fine,

    my friend is running heatsink reds and i have never seen his brake slip!

    so either way your best bet is koxx bloxx,heatsink reds or Majic pads!

    to get the ultimate performance from these pads, use a nice fresh grind!
