Description
Magura MT5 4-Piston Disc Brake – 2-Finger Aluminium Lightweight Lever Blade
Full Gravity Performance at an Entry-Level Price
The Magura MT5 delivers powerful gravity braking performance at an affordable price, making it one of the most popular retrofit brakes in the MAGURA range. Developed with the same DNA as the high-end MT7, the MT5 is built for downhill, enduro, bike park riding, and demanding trail use.
With its rigid one-piece forged aluminium 4-piston caliper, the MT5 provides exceptional braking power, excellent modulation, and reliable performance in all conditions. It is also a strong choice for e-bike applications where consistent braking power is essential.
Features
Radial Design
The radial master cylinder design reduces friction and minimizes transmission losses. It allows efficient conversion of different transmission ratios, improving braking sensitivity, modulation, and overall control.
Powerful 4-Piston Performance
The one-piece forged aluminium 4-piston caliper offers high stiffness, delivering strong braking power and precise modulation required for gravity-focused riding.
Reliable Continuous Performance
Compared to the MT7, the MT5 features increased piston retraction, improving reliability during long-term use and demanding riding conditions. Installation is quick and the system operates with minimal friction.
