Found a crack on the rear caliper of my magura MT4 so it will be sent back for warranty, but we all know these things can take a long time, so i'm looking for something to replace it with while i wait, if i can get a decent deal i would be willing to buy a pair and use the maguras as spares, whats the go to brakes at the minute? And where are the best deals ?
Thanks in advance
Rab

After trying XT and SLX on my bikes in the past, I'll be using them again next time too.

Rose. SLX £55 each end.
http://www.rosebikes.co.uk/article/shimano-slx-disc-brake-br-m675/aid:591857

You'll need to swap the levers over though.

Another £15 for a pair of XT , but rarely in stock at their prices.

Consider Deore M596.... possibly the best value brake on the market, not as bling as the above two, but a pair of powerful, quality brakes for £65 ...?
http://www.rosebikes.co.uk/search/find/?q=deore+m596+brakes

again, struggling for stock at that price.
