In this video I’m going to explain how to adjust Magura Brakes.

My Cannondale Super V came with a set of old-style Magura HS22 brakes. Basically Magura HS22 brakes haven’t changed in the last 2 decades.

After I removed the flaking paint, and polishing them then need to be set adjusted like any other rim brake. The process isn’t as straightforward as doing a v-brake, but if you know what you need to do, it isn’t that difficult either.

The Magura brakes are made up of a set of pistons that hold the brake shoes. These pistons sit inside a black plastic shell. The piston inside its shell is held onto the frame with a clamp.

I've also written about blog post with more information. If you want to read this article go to "https://www.restoration.bike/bike-rep..."
