| Pros | Value, power, modulation, light weight, & factory leak-proof warranty | | Cons | Replacement parts & pads are more expensive than domestice brake systems. | | Verdict | These brakse are great for riders looking at getting their first set of hydraulic brakes. A lot of entry level high-end mountain bikes come with Hayes Sole, Shimano Deore, or Avid Juicy3 brakes, but the Magura Julies offer better stopping power, weight, and value. It's a shame that Julies aren't spec'ed on American bikes as are the Sole, Deore or Juicy3's.
The Magura Julies would be an excellent choice for any weight-conscious XC rider. | | Recommended for: Value seekers | |
