Buy Magura MT5 for Your Bike at BIKE24
For years the Magura MT5 has been a cornerstone in the portfolio of the renowned brake specialist Magura from Bad Urach in Baden-Württemberg – a company with over 125 years of experience in developing powerful brakes. As an attractively priced entry model, the MT5 brings World Cup-proven technology into the world of gravity brakes for entry-level riders. If you love tinkering on your bike or spending more time on the trails than at home, you'll love it: You get the technologies of high-end models – without any compromises in power and performance. The Magura MT5 series centers around the stiff 4-piston brake caliper, the finely adjustable and powerful brake lever, and the tuning options.

Magura MT5 brakes are also particularly popular with S-Pedelec riders who rely on high braking performance and safety. At BIKE24, you'll find all the models, sets, and replacement parts for the Magura MT5. Rotors are sold separately, but you can pair the system with Magura rotors like the Storm HC or MDR-P.
