Morpheus "Nod"

"...fiber-reinforced molded 'Carbotecture'" is just a fancy way of saying "plastic". not that there's anything wrong with nylon-reinforced plastic, but i hate when companies try to make it sound fancier than it really is...it makes me think they don't fully have faith in it, so they've had to come up with technical-sounding marketing jargon to make it an easier sell. anyway, the MT2's look interesting, but considering that Magura Louise BAT brakes are easily found for just $15 more, i'd rather go with those. i'd wait on the MT2's until there are actual real-world reviews on them. they could either be an innovative way to get hydro disc brakes at affordable prices, or they could be a disaster. as far as Magura forks...meh. i've never personally used one, but i've never heard super-great things about them. i'm sure they work fine for some people, but i've never been impressed enough to consider them. even the Topeak-Ergon team, who runs almost entirely German parts, switched from Magura to RockShox forks this year.
