Magura's definition of trail braking performance at an affordable price - 4 pistons in the front for maximum braking power, 2 pistons in the rear for perfect dosing. The ergonomics of the shorter 1-finger HC lever allows for full braking power with one finger.
The MT Trail Sport is your introduction to 100% trail performance, and demonstrates that the proven 4/2 piston concept doesn't have to be expensive. High-quality components such as the Carbotecture® brake lever and the 4/2 concept ensure weight reduction, but without sacrificing reliability.

Technology:

Carbotecture®
New material developed by Magura consisting of a high proportion of carbon fibres embedded in a thermoplastic matrix. More powerful, more tensile, more flexible and more break-resistant than conventional, fibre-reinforced plastics or laminated carbon fibre mats. Ideally suited for manufacturing using the Carboflow® process. An artificial word composed of carbon and architecture.

HCT (Hard Core Tech):
Under the HCT program, which at Magura stands for Hard Core Tech and has its origin in Magura Powersport, Magura combines all developments and special detail improvements that are developed for racing or the highest demands. Now Magura brings HCT to the mountain bike.
The HC brake lever for MT disc brakes was specially developed for retrofitting to optimise ergonomic performance. The ergonomics of the shorter HC aluminium lever allows full braking power - safely with one finger. The design and new ergonomics of the 12 mm-shorter HC lever also incorporated feedback and experience from Danny MacAskill.
At the same weight as standard 2-finger aluminium levers, the HC technology version improves ergonomics noticeably.
The new brake lever is retrofittable for all Magura MT disc brakes MT6/MT7/MT Trail (possibly MT8) from model year 2015.

Great brakes for the price. Lovely lever shape, nice modulation, very powerful. I've also only had to bleed them once, unlike my former Shimano brakes, which required regular bleeding. All in all they're much better brakes for my Ibis Ripley. No more white-knuckling it into a corner, worrying if I'm going to overshoot it. Every now and then I do get a bit of caliper-rotor rub, but it's so rare that it doesn't bother me too much. I can see buying another set for my hardtail.

Great set, but the front caliper is bleeding out and doesn’t work good.

Great stopping power for an amazing price. I like them so much I have this set on two of my bikes, with a third soon to have them once my recent order arrives. IMHO these are an even better deal than the MT5. Why? These brakes come with the 1 finger aluminum lever which is a 25.20€ (retail in the USA for approx $50.00) bonus.
Clearly written installation instructions, all the hardware even the extra barbs and olives so you can cut the hose to fit your bike.

Great stoping power and amazing lever feel probably the best brake for the money and super light.Could use a stronger clamp.

Хорошие качественные тормоза. Покупались на туристический вариант. Со своей задачей , а именно эффективного торможения, справляется на 100 процентов. Посмотрим ,как они проведут себя через год! Пока доволен очень.
Из минусов, это цена колодок, которые придется покупать через некоторое время прозапас

Easy to install/service, powerful and reliable - an absolute bargain at this price. There's no need to spend more money elsewhere except for flashier looks (if that's what you're after). Also, Magura spare parts are to be found almost everywhere - at least across Europe. Personally, I like the 1-finger levers very much, but they're a bit more tiring than the longer ones. Also, I'd recommend going for a full MT5 combo to heavier, skilled and/or fast riders (I did so with my enduro sled).
