Got a Ti hardtail, (Airborne), all working fine apart from the brakes - think they have had it - replaced the pistons and seals but regularly get total loss of pressure......
So in the market for replacements - what does the singletrack cogniscenti recommend?
cheers

Links to deals appreciated!
Magura Martas. Got three sets on various bikes, all faultless, even in the Alps.
slx (latest ones)
send your brakes back to hope and get them completely rebuitl for about £40 an end
Hadn't even considered a rebuild - do they do levers as well?

properly set up and running minis are top brakes .still running them on my P7 and they haul my 15.5 stone frame up sharpish (180mm front / 140 rear).
100 quid an end........
Cheap and going by the reviews good

yep, £40 (ish) is for the complete assembly. give them a ring, they're really good people
As above send them to hope and they'll come back as good as new. They rebuild the levers, calipers and stick new pads in for about £40. I've got mono m4's on one bike and tech m4's on the other and the newer ones aren't that much better. Otherwise if you want cheap but powerful then buy some Shimano slx but be prepared to bin them in a couple of years when a seal fails.
