Hi
Bought a Cube bike recently and it has "Magura MT Thirty" brakes fitted. I was told by the shop they are really powerful, which they are - no complaints tbh, apart from the flimsy plastic levers. Anyhow, I tried finding information about these on the Magura website and there is no info at all.
Tried asking the shop I bought it from, and they have no idea. Emailed Magura a week ago and no reply either. Guess I could try Cube but thought i'd try here first.
I think perhaps are rebranded for OEM/Cube so perhaps are MT2, MT3 - anyone know? They are four piston at front, twin at rear. Reason i ask is some of the Magura range have upgradeable levers etc and others don't. Plus would be useful to know about bleeding etc.
Thanks
Mike

It'll be some mix of parts with an MT5 front caliper and a 2 pot rear, but the levers could be from any in the range so it's more important to find out which those are. I ditched mine to run Shimano levers and they work brilliantly.
Good point. You've got/had MT Thirty as well?Did you mean you changed the levers and kept the body of the lever or changed the whole thing that sits on the handlebar? Cheers
