Magura MT5e Carbotecture Disc Brake

The Magura MT5e Carbotecture Disc Brake offers increased safety on S-pedelecs

The Magura MT5e disc brake with Carbotecture® is especially designed for S-pedelecs and ensures that the motor of the E-bike is switched off when braking. A switch attached to the lever is used for this purpose. With the proven 4-piston design, drawn from Magura's experience in motorcycle racing, you always come to a reliable stop. The ball-head lever for 3 fingers is ergonomically optimised, and the brake lever housing is particularly light thanks to Carbotecture. The brake pads are quickly changed with magnetiXchange, so wheel removal is not necessary. The MT5e is based on the MT7 Pro, which is used by mountain bikers on the steepest trails. High braking power combined with perfect dosing, which can't go wrong even in city traffic.

Note from the manufacturer:

The designation " HIGO opener" and " HIGO closer" refers to the circuit - one opens, while the other closes the circuit. In this case, the drivetrain manufacturer must provide information as to which version is the correct one for the drivetrain in question.

Guidelines for Replacing E-bike Components:

Before you replace components on your e-bike, please read through the guidelines for component replacement for CE-marked E-bikes/pedelecs with pedal assistance.

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.
