bitemybutt Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hiya, Just wondering if anyone knew if a HS33 lever with HS11 pistons would be any good. I know they are compatible with each other but would I lose any power? Any advice would be brilliant. Cheers, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felix Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 The only difference between HS11 and HS33 is the lever.Putting a HS33 lever on a HS11 makes it a HS33. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 they are the same as hs33I thought part of the master cylinder was different. There are loads of posts on what the difference is between them so if your curious i'm sure your find something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkytrials Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 (edited) Hs11 + hs33 lever = hs33 I think Edited March 11, 2007 by clarkytrials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 I thought part of the master cylinder was different. There are loads of posts on what the difference is between them so if your curious i'm sure your find something.The master cylinder is in the lever .The slaves are the same (bits where the pads go), the cables are the same, and the barbs are the same... only difference was the lever.

guineasmithpig Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 iirc, don't they do the hs66 for tandems? does this have any extra power, for use under heavier loads? remember people riding for megamo and monty using massive 'trials specific' magura levers back in the day with beasty master cylinders. were these actually trials specific for team riders? or old hs33 levers? or from the hs66 range or something?Smithy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 hs33 and hs11's arnt the same. the calipers are but the hs11 has a smaller master cylinder in the lever body (not lever) campared to the hs33 so they arn't as powerfull. It can get rather confusing when people say lever when they mean lever body so someone may have said what i have said already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can get rather confusing when people say lever when they mean lever body so someone may have said what i have said already.Lever=Lever blade + Lever body.If there wasn't a lever body there the blade would have nothing to lever itself against, so the whole unit is called a lever. Look, see what i mean?It's not confusing at all, you just don't get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
