2011 Magura HS33s

We were lucky enough to be shown the 2-finger and 4-finger HS33 brakes today for release later this year - there are a few obvious changes from the 2005 levers, making the brake much more functional than previously. With a re-designed lever body constructed out of Magura's own material, the actual body itself is stronger than ever, and a totally redesigned TPA means that almost all aspects of the lever have been improved. There are also a few neat features like a re-designed bleed port and a change in the fitting-style of the hoses - when the brake is officially launched we'll be able to show more, but until then these will have to do! From now on, all HS33s will feature a silver lever body with a choice of 4 colours of snap-on lever cover (black, silver, red or yellow), and the HS11s will feature a black body instead.

Most of the HS33s on sale right now have the updated shape slave cylinders, so a few of you might be familiar with them already.

When the brakes are officially launched we will be stocking these new models, and as a result full details with more detailed photos & information will be released on the site as soon as possible.
