Yes i know it works allmost every magnet but i mean some ready product. Looked some shimano disks with magnet but will it work out of box because i see there are different option on magnet location/dimensions.

I refitted the shimano magnet to some TRP disc's when I replaced my rear wheel with a dtswis one.
Just used a round file and drilled a couple of holes for the mounting plate.

oddly theres a discussion on the FB 'Trek Rail Owners Worldwide' group started a few days ago about this

theres a few options but easiest is probably the Bosch offering

p/number 1270015727.

as example it's £15.49 from TBS Magura Rotor Sensor Magnet. For Centerlock (BDU3XX, BDU4XX). 127001572 | Total Bleed Solutions and may be cheaper elsewhere (I didn't look)

also, if you're using Magura mdr-p discs (203mm I have seen n my mrs's Orbea) have a hole in the ball suitable for a magnet to be inserted into, obviously you’d need said magnet that’s conveniently also available as an extra from Magura (~£10)
