    Hi
    Does anyone know if the Hope matchmaker, or any others, will mate Magura MT4 brakes to Shimano shifters?

    The Magura’s have a captive thread and nut fixing don’t they?
    I’d say with a bit of luck and drilling out the holes in the matchmaker you’d have a good chance of them lining up….

    Yes, they do. A technical drawing showing the bolt centres would help. I guess you could mill out additional material to get the centre right?

    Yes give Hope a call and get the measurement for the centres, if I go out yo the cave I’ll measure a set for you. they wouldn’t be far off if at all.

    OK, looks like 30mm centres.
    It’s also 6mm deep. I think that’s slightly deeper than the magura clamp but I’m the barrel nut is sufficiently long enough to secure it.

    Thanks for the info.

    On the CRC website somebody has used the Hopes with Magura MT8s and they fit spot on. With your measurements and this I’m pretty confident they’ll fit the MT4s

    Yes, you’ll need I spec shifters. The Hope website shows full compatibility. I will be using an XT I spec
