I would have preferred Magura Royal Blood because the brake caliper of the MT5 is a heat-loaded component and is of course designed for this oil. Absolutly great video, btw.
@@ForestRockets Regardless of what oil you use, you can use the "vacuum" technique, where you have fresh oil inside your syringe, you put your finger on the end of the syringe and pull the end to create a negative pressure inside the syringe. With the oil still in it, you might notice very, very tiny bubbles coming from seemingly nowhere inside the oil to the surface. You're now separating air trapped inside the oil :)
I did the shigura mods for mt5 with slx levers. Used shimano inserts and olives, also had to modify the contact point screws from the lever because i'm using magura discs which are a little bit thicker. So far these combos are the most powerfull brakes from what i've owned (had zees, codes , elixirs). Sincerly i don't know from where this braking power is comming, because i also changed the pads to magura performance. Anyways this is the cheapest way to solve the issue of lever bending from the Mt5 (50 euros for 2 slx levers).
do you have a comparison to maguras modulation? i really like it and i"m worried that if i would put a shimano levers i would lose most of the modulation
I have an mt7 and The breakline is really short due to the new internal routing of the frame, can I use shimano brake line? (Shimano banjo) magura fittings in the lever and magura caliper? Basically I wiuld just use a shimano breakline
@@ForestRockets i've ordered a set of mt5's and they're already filled and bled. i'm assuming the mineral oil should be removed from the calipers first prior to installation? would the shimano banjo fittings be compatible to magura mt5?
No you can bleed the whole Shigura System with Magura Royal Blood after Installation. If you already have a complete MT5 Set I would use the Magura Hoses and just Insert a Shimano Pin an Olive to the Lever Side.
@@ForestRockets while shimano/magura have identical outer diameters, I think using their own inserts to pair with their hose is the best way to avoid leaking at the levers. i've seen some comments on other shigura videos that shimano inserts are made for an inner diameter hose of 2.1mm while inner diameter of a magura hose is 2.3mm. So far how are the brakes running are there any known issues?
If you use Magura hose you need to use Magura pin and olive. At least that's what was told to me. And it makes sense, because magura hose has a slightly bigger diameter.
Hi there! I have the old mt3 Magura calipers paired with my stock Tektro levers (the calipers were given to me). I was wondering if should I match it with the Deore m6100 levers or should I go for the SLX m7100? Do correct me if I'm wrong. You used the stock cables from the Magura and changed the end fittings to match the Shimano levers, right? Just making sure because I want to pursue this setup. Also, have you tried using Shimano mineral oil? TIA!
I got the MT5s and don't like the sponginess of the levers and plan to switch them out and use my old Shimano MT200 levers. If I already have the Magura hose running internally should I just use that or use the Shimano line feom.my MT200s. I see a lot of people use the Shimano line. What adaptor should I use to connect the Shimano line to the MT5 caliper. Cant find it :( . I found one for a Jagwire line but no Shimano/Magura.
Sorry for the late answer, hope its not too late or you've already found the answer. Anyway, you can use the Magura hose with the MT200. Then you need to use the Magura olive and insertpin too. You can also use Shimano hose, but if it is not the one with so called "banjo" end you need some kind of adapters like you've already mentioned. So, I think you should go with the Magura hose thats already installed to your calipers.
Did you try simply switching to hc or hc3 levers first? My Maguras never feel spongy. They bite solid like a rock. You just gotta know all the tricks: th-cam.com/video/Bl8PChRadX0/w-d-xo.html
@@dukeofmtb I didn't but used the MT200 Shimano levers and they work awesome. Everyone who has tested my bike likes the feel and bite on the MT5s. I used the Shimano line and just converted the ends.
@@pepsnex That's great. MT200 levers are a great choice. It's the servowave levers that suck. If it works, no need to fix it. I wouldn't switch back from those unless you were to try the hc3 lever blades. All the other Magura lever blades suck in comparison. I'd love to give that combo a try some day.
Hi late reply but the Magura hose should be used with the magura caliper as Banjos are different sizes, You then use the shimano olive , nut and bh59 barb brass one which is 2.3mm NOT the bh90 barb silver one which is 2.1mm The 2.3mm bh59 fit lovely in the magura hose The Magura hose is 2.2mm but the end of the magura barb is to long for the shimano levers as less nut gets threaded in the levers for a note both shimano and magura hoses have the same external diameter . Again sorry for the late reply you have probably sorted it already but thought it was worth a mention for any one else .
hi, I'm from chile, great job with this mechanic tip, but i got a few question's to do. how mineral oil can be use it in both brands, knowing the mineral oil are diferent. magura use BLUE royal mineral oil and shimano use mineral oil. do you compare both label and study the heating point? i ask this beacuse i'm getting started with the same proyect thing that you do. i'm so exhausted from use sram brakes, and your video iluminated me to do that. and for another question, where do you get it the information?? i hope you can answer mis questions. bless
@@bikesnblades6737 Hello, do you have any reference that supports what you are saying? It is not that I distrust, but today it is preferable to have some information as a backup, especially because in terms of brakes, this issue is somewhat delicate.
Having run a mixture in mine for about two years now. Also, it's mineral oil. What could happen? Worst case the seals swell up from some additive, but people have been doing it forever and there haven't been any problems. It's not like Magura or Shimano reinvented the wheel when it comes to their hydraulic fluid. It's a bicycle brake, not a space shuttle 😉
As far as the thermal capacity of the oil goes, it can't be that different. Or do you really believe Shimano would use a oil that is vastly inferior to magura, or vice versa? And even if so, it's obviously enough not to massively overheat and therefore good enough for use in another brake. The brakes are also not world's apart in terms of heat management. I get being careful, but this is basically sweating over which battery is better suited for your flashlight rather than using gasoline instead of diesel in your diesel engine. You could even use baby oil, as showcased by Seth of formerly Seth's bike hacks and now berm peak TH-cam channel.
@@bikesnblades6737 Thank you very much dude, I want to try to make this project as painstaking as possible, and there really is a lot to learn. Thank you for your time and answer my questions.
Did you already have the magura calipers on hand or did you need to buy them? If you bought them, did you get just the calipers and hoses or the levers too?
Forest Rockets thank you! I was wondering because I couldn’t find any with just the calipers. I didn’t think to look at eBay. Are they still working well?
I’ve been mulling the idea of doing this. I currently have XT 8120 brakes. So if I understand this correctly all I would need is Magura calipers and rotors? Would this work with Shimano mineral oil, or would I need to drain the system and refill with Royal blood?
You can eather use Shimano or Magura oil. There is no big difference. Same goes for the rotors. Magura rotors are 0.2mm thicker than Shimano. So in theory they have an earlier breaking point.
Hi, thanks for the upload! I understand that you should either use shimano hose w/shimano olive & bolt or magura hose w/ magura olive & bolt. But what about the connector on the hose (caliper end): does a shimano connector (on the shimano hose end) fit on the magura caliper? Cheers! *Edit: saw your comment about the "banjo hose fitting" below too late mate. :)
Yeah you can totally just exchange the caliper with the Magura one. The only thing that you should check is if the O-rings are intact to prevent leakage
Ist zum Teil persönlicher Geschmack z.B. früherer Druckpunkt aber auch einfach mehr Bremspower im vergleich zu den 4 Kolben XTs. Man könnte auch komplett Magura nehmen aber da ist der Hebel eben nicht so geil und so hat man das beste aus beiden Welten
@Christian Dominguez u can use the normal magura hose that comes with the calipers. I built myself an xt7 with the older m8000 levers and it feels and works perfectly for now 5 months. Make sure you get yourself the right olive for the m8000 lever and you should be good to go. (when I bought the levers they came without an olive ond this little bolt and I run everything with royal blood) Hope this helps in some way:)
You can use baby oil if you want. It doesn´t matter as long as it´s mineral oil. I´ve had royal blood as well as shimano in mine. Just... don´t use baby oil unless you absolutely have to ;-)
I have XT now and have always been but I notice on all of my Shimano XT M8000 that everytime the elevation changes or or long descend, the bite point changes. I still have brakes without fading but the bite point is very inconsistent! Just wondering if Shigura XT5 bite point stays consistent no matter the elevation change. Please advise. Thanks!
I have no direct comparison to the XT calipers. Only to the zee on my dh bike. It feels like the xt5 are more stabil. But my zees are about 5 years old now. Anyway I am thinking about changing the calipers to maguras too.
I tried Shigura. It still had the inconsistent bite point. It's an issue in the Shimano levers. Just get the hc3 levers. They're amazing. Plus Maguras are way easier to bleed with their own master cylinder. Easier than the Shimano funnel method even. I get a perfect bleed and lever feel every time by doing this after trimming the hoses or doing a fresh flush: th-cam.com/video/Bl8PChRadX0/w-d-xo.html
