  • I’ve got a ‘91 Saracen Traverse that I’d like to use. It’s got Magura Hydro rim brakes. Would it be possible to replace these with V Brakes or is it likely the fork mounts are not compatible?

  • They're the same brake posts, but as Magura HS33s are the best rim brakes ever, why would you replace them?

  • Since we're on topic - which Magura HS-- model should I be trying to get? Is the current HS33 you can buy new better than older versions like those dayglo Racelines or Tomacs? The new lever design is fugly.

    Also, are the 22 or 11 worth a look?

  • but as Magura HS33s are the best rim brakes ever, why would you replace them?

    True, however I know almost nothing about hydraulic brakes. Let alone have the parts to maintain/bleed them, etc. Do Magura still make parts for these? As @Miitch says, I'll probably just drop it off at my LBS to sort.
    Sorry @stedlocks - not my pic I'm afraid
