Fabio Wibmer’s MT5 Limited Edition

The YouTube star and Magura athlete now has a signature brake.

The new MAGURA MT5 Limited Edition brake by Fabio Wibmer offers everything that mountain bikers need to fine-tune their riding skills. The powerful 4-piston brake calipers provide massive power and outstanding heat resistance – and the ergonomic HC 1-finger lever blade offers precise control.

Thoughts => I’ve always been a huge fan of Magura’s MT5 brakes, and I’ve been running a pair for over 6 years on various bikes. The Magura MT5 four-piston brake has excellent power, superb modulation and lever feel, and offers precise braking and control, with highlights to its feathering capabilities and lever feel. The Fabio Wibmer MT5 Limited Edition offers some nice eye candy (love the gold highlights), the ergonomic HC 1-finger lever,  and of course the always excellent performance and pricepoint of the MT5 series.

 

Beginning with the proven foundation of MAGURA’s powerful 4-piston brake caliper, Fabio Wibmer then set forth to design a brake fitting of his demanding standards and style. Just like the MT5, it’s based on, Fabio’s brake is built for power and control and embodies the MAGURA slogan #whostopsyou – let nothing stop you from achieving your goals, not even failed attempts.

The Fabio Wibmer MT5 Limited Edition is available for an MSRP of $349 per set, not including rotors. The attractive price point assures that there is still enough funds leftover for a bike park visit or planning future riding trips with friends.

The Limited edition of 2,000 sets will be available in the first week of September. MAGURA USA is offering the Fabio Wibmer MT5 Limited Edition brake for pre-order now.

4-Piston Brake Power – The award-winning performance of the MAGURA MT5 in a Limited Edition look. Thanks to its one-piece, forged 4-piston brake caliper, the brake offers the finest modulation for trials and the best heat management for long descents in the bike park.

Proven Ergonomics – After testing the five different MAGURA brake levers, Fabio opted for the shape of the MAGURA HC 1-finger lever blade for precise fingertip control and modulation. The brake also features a wide lever width adjustment and a defined bite point.
