New Hs33 Brake

Recommended Posts

The cylinders are identical to the HS33.

Yes - it seems the HS11 is better suited to trials riders.

read what he said kieran mate. the brakes are the same they just look a little different.

the hs11 will be the preffered one i assume because it is cheaper and comes with the longer lever blade

That's what I meant though, what I put in bold.

And yeah Mike, fresh start :)

mike was being sarcastic.... you are being the same as you was before....

and in answer to your question, which has already been answered severaltimes... the hs11 has a longer lever blade than the hs33. this means that the hs11 has more leverage in the lever. and as mark said, it gives 16% more power than the hs33.

thats as simpal as its going to get, so if you still dont get it, then god help you!

Sort of - it's still quite a bit different.

Regarding the feel and so on - the internals/piston sizes/stuff like that are the same as the old HS33, so it should be similar to before. The lever blades feel a lot nicer on the new ones though. They feel almost more like a V-brake lever (in terms of having a slightly more angled tip, and the blade profile) compared to the old style ones.

Oh! Sorry I thought there was another reason for it being better for trials.

Sorry :$

Haha, they are pretty impossible to overtighten, and it can't 'pop off the end of the thread' like the current system, so you should be fine :)

The pin is pressed in, so I'm assuming the cover actually has a function since the pin might come a bit loose after a lot of use. Nothing a nut and bolt or superglue couldn't sort out though!

It doesnt look too bad with just the cover on there but the rubber boot is minging :D

the power is very good too.

the material seems to be as good as magura said it was.

wes

Sounds promosing. Still not keen on the look though...

The HS33 is available in 2 or 4, just not from us, for the record...

Thats fair enough but it still seems weird to market 2 identical brakes purely on their colour scheme, then again they've been in the game a lot longer than me so obviously have there reasons!
