Magura Q again...I'm not being stupid am I?

[Harryburgundy]

At last I rec'd my set of Magura HS33's with Evo mounts...but I can't fit them.
Just checking with you experienced people that I'm not being stupid as the front 'cylinders' do not have the rubber/plastic 'spacers' that enable them to fit in the mounts.
That is wrong isn't it...can't see any other way that they would fit.
Also, do you need extra washers to fit the brake booster?
Thanks, Carl

Yes, they do need the plastic part to allow the outer part to clamp down on the cylinder and to allow adjustment.

Not sure on clearance on the brake booster, I have the Magura booster on my GT Hans Rey, but they fit differently. Oh, do you means the standard booster which goes behind the brakes? Don't think you need the washers tbh.

Thanks fella, looks like another long wait from the Ebay seller to respond to my query, and an equally long wait for him to send them :x

To fit the standard brake booster. They say fit a metal washer. It's round with a flat section section. I've got some at home. Will look tonight.

I've found that the Cantistud U washers (what Tintin refers to as 'round with flat section) dont HAVE to be used unless you are using the quick release with Hourglass bolts.

Send me your email address and I will send you a Magura Service/Fitting book thing.
