ProsValue, power, modulation, light weight, & factory leak-proof warranty
ConsReplacement parts & pads are more expensive than domestice brake systems.
VerdictThese 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.
