brake stuff can be tricky. a mate and i tried quite a few things..
magura hs66/77 road levers to julie calipers (only low pressure disc brake), did not work - the levers did not push enough fluid, so brake force was nil (could turn the wheel by hand with fully compressed lever)
made the mistake of hooking up a hope converter box (mechanical to hydro) to shimano calipers, did not work - mineral oil fucked up the seals in the hope box (dot) and pistons seized
atm my project is to mate sram hrd levers to elixir5 calipers.. :D (no, i don't know when to give up), i hope that will succeed....... (in house products)
