Hi all has anyone else bought a CUBE STEREO HYBRID 160 HPC SL 625 recently and noticed that instead of the listed Magura MT Fifty brakes that the actual brakes are Magura MT Thirtys?

Ah right still prefer my shimano brakes everyone is different though it’s personal taste I did have a sticky piston on the rear to they are the budget brakes I guess

what even are these MT 30 or 50 brakes?
I can't find info on them. are they better than MT7?
how does the shifter on the RHS connect to the bars, does it fasten onto the brake lever like it would with the SRAM MMX & Shimano i-Spec setups?

Are they 2 or 4 piston calipers?
2 piston = MT4 caliper and pads
4 piston = MT5 caliper and pads (upgradable to MT7 pads)

yes I tried looking on the Magura website, unless i'm being thick, I can't see the MT 30 or 50 brakes on there?
Your right. No info.
Supose they are kits only for sell to bicycle manufacturers .
What I´ve found ;)
