BIKE24 – The online shop for cyclistsMagura has unveiled the Race Pro, a high-performance disc brake engineered to deliver exceptional braking power and precise modulation. Crafted entirely from forged and CNC-machined aluminium, the Race Pro offers enhanced rigidity while maintaining a lightweight design. (magura.com)
Designed for demanding disciplines such as cross-country (XC), trail, enduro, downhill (DH), and e-MTB, the Race Pro features a radial master cylinder and a ball-bearing-mounted lever pivot. These components ensure smooth lever operation and reduce the effort required during braking. The one-piece forged brake caliper, with four 19 mm pistons, provides direct transmission of braking force to the pads, ensuring consistent performance under high loads. (magura.com)
A key focus in the development of the Race Pro was its modulation capabilities. The brake offers a linear, consistent power build-up throughout the entire lever stroke, making the transition from maximum grip to loss of control more predictable. This design provides riders with greater control, particularly in critical moments. (themtblab.com)

The brake lever features tool-free reach adjustment, enabling riders to customize lever position for optimal ergonomics. Additionally, the Race Pro comes with a 5-year leak-proof warranty, underscoring Magura’s commitment to quality and durability. (magura.com)
