First Ride: Magura Relaunch the Gustav Pro Brakes
I tried MT7s on my e bike after hearing so many good things. Use Tech4 V4 on enduro bike. The MT7s have been really disappointing in comparison. It's hard to switch from V4 to them.
Not sure if I have a lemon or something? Whatever it is the MT7 feel less powerful, and less tactile/ intuitive. Maybe I'd get used to them if I rode them exclusively, but I find the power comes on unpredictably. It's almost non-linear. Like you pull a bit and they slow a bit, you pull a little more, and they are locked up.
I've tried several different pads, currently Galfer, and am now trying Shimano levers. Shimano levers are a small improvement, but I still don't really like them. Run 200mm rotors on both.
And the build quality is incomparable. The Hope's put them to shame.
