MAGURA GUSTAV PRO

Gustav, the founder of MAGURA, was a thinker and innovator of his time. His constant drive for progress inspired a brake system that revolutionized the scene in the 90s: MAGURA´s first hydraulic disc brake for bicycles!

Since then, the name GUSTAV has been reserved for those products that achieve the highest degree of innovation and performance progress – and this is exactly that.

Massive 2.5 mm brake discs and 19 mm brake pistons provide a new braking sensation and keep you out of the workshop twice as long. If you need to get to work, EASY LINK makes all work child’s play.

EVERYTHING THAT MADE MAGURA GREAT! AND MORE.

Anyone who knows the MT7 knows that we are serious about performance. With this one, we go one better!
For more control, later braking points and less arm pump. Anyone can build brakes that stop light bikes, but our latest one slows down even the heaviest bikes quickly and is predestined for your most potent e-bikes and gravity machines.

FINEST PRECISION

…without brutal aggressiveness.

Anyone who does this has to be able to rely entirely on their brakes. But even the highest power is useless if you can’t modulate it sensitively. 
With its 2.5 mm thick brake rotors, the GUSTAV PRO combines stability, power, and modulation like no other brake.

Consistent performance from the summit to the valley.

GUSTAV NEVER LOSES THEIR COOL!

With the new MDR-S 2.5 rotors, braking with the GUSTAV is quieter than ever! The optimized friction ring design and the high rigidity of the thick rotor ensure low vibration and particularly quiet braking, even under high loads. And lengthy braking is a thing of the past: GUSTAV gets you up to speed without a time-consuming bedding-in protocol. Ride off and enjoy a smooth ride right from the start after a short run-in.

Thanks to less heat development, glazing of the brake pads is particularly unlikely.

MORE MILES. LESS WORRIES.

Don´t let brakes ruin your fun. With the GUSTAV, we’ve doubled the maintenance time!

Extra thick brake pads with 40 % more volume and thick 2.5 mm brake rotors with a 2.1 mm wear limit keep you out of the workshop.

OIL CRISIS? NOT WITH US!

With double the oil volume in the expansion reservoir (7 ml), we have done everything possible to ensure that bleeding is rarely necessary.
If the worst happens, our new bleed valve ensures it is a clean affair. The oil channel has no dead-end streets or dangerous corners, so you can relax and catch every air bubble.

INSTALLATION WITH EASE!

The GUSTAV PRO relies on a large air gap between the rotor and pad to ensure the brake caliper can be adjusted quickly without grinding.

And if the piston does not sit perfectly in your caliper, the rigid brake rotor ensures that the pads align themselves.

MAGURA EASY LINK & EASY TUBE TECHNOLOGIES

WE´RE ALL ABOUT SLOWING THINGS DOWN. EXCEPT INSTALLATION!

We like to decelerate. However, with two new technologies, MAGURA presents two fast alternatives to the classic clamping ring connection of brake lines and components for effortless installation and maintenance.

PLUG’N PLAY FOR YOUR BRAKE HOSE

The quick and flexible way to connect and disconnect a hose. And as often as you like. From this model year, EASY LINK will be integrated into the GUSTAV PRO and also available as a retrofit valve for MAGURA MT disc brakes.

QUICK INITIAL INSTALLATION

After installation, click the brake hose with EASY LINK into the brake master. Bleeding and other work steps are no longer necessary! Thanks to EASY LINK, we can deliver the GUSTAV PRO’s brake calliper and brake master separately and pre-filled. This makes it easier to replace them in case of a defect or crash.

EASY MAINTENANCE

Have you ever tried to change the headset on a bike with headset cable routing?

A few jobs on a bike can be annoying: opening the brake, cutting off the olive connection, unthreading, reconnecting the brake, and bleeding the brake.
A horror if you don’t yet have an EASY LINK!

With our new technology, you can disconnect your brake components anytime and as often as you like. Pull the EASY LINK clip, and you can pull out the hose.

  • Exceptional fast assembly speed
  • Maximum process reliability
  • Always optimum filling level during initial assembly
  • Particularly clean installation
  • Separate delivery
  • Simple & quick shortening possible

TECHNOLOGY FOR CREATING HOSE CONNECTIONS

MAGURA presents the new EASY TUBE Technology (ETT) to make EASY LINK and other hose connections particularly easy to produce yourself.

All you need is a hose by the meter and the corresponding connection sets.

This is more flexible, cheaper, and less wasteful, especially for specialist dealers. Now, retailers can assemble their requirements from a roll of yard goods to the exact centimeter and use them flexibly.
