  • does mine fit? i'll be home in about 2 hours

  • Hey tommmmmmmmm, I've got the same drying rack as you!

    HAPPY EASTER!

  • You've both got lovely racks.

  • bike looks lush irl

  • Anyone running Magura hydraulic rim brakes on a Pompino? I tried a search on here and on google but it didn't come up with much.

  • ^^^Is it a sabichi rack? Think it's the same as mine too

    Don't Maguras need the bosses to be at rim height?

  • No there are systems that require dedicated bosses but there's also ones that bolt right onto regular V-brake/canti bosses.

  • Behold!

    These are HS66, no? I thought the HS77 were the road calipers.

  • What dammit posted are road calipers... Silly dammit...

  • Could be HS77 levers with HS33 calipers, actually. Correct me if I'm wrong. and sell me a pair for cheaper than this if you have one.

    Not sure if you've seen Colin recently, but he's running a front magura on his polo bike, regular v/canti bosses

  • You'd be running drop bars on a Pompino thought would you not?

  • Unless it's polo, of course

  • what dammit posted are road levers...

    ftfy

  • HS77- drop bar levers and hydro-calipers.
    HS66- drop bar levers and hydro-cantis.

  • This is making me remember lusting after some fluro-yellow magura hydraulic brakes for my MTB in the 90's

    I was running an HS33 on mine. Whatchoo wanna know about it?

  • Nothing specific I guess... I have a pair of fluro yellow HS33s and a carbon cx fork laying around and my current commutter conversion is getting ready for retirement. Just thinking out loud.
    What made you get rid of the HS33?

    This.

  • are hydro drop bar brake levers expensive? is there a cheap tektro?

  • There are currently none in production, however both SRAM and Shimano are working to bring some to the market- probably for a fairly chilling price however.

    Wanting drops.

    Plus I never felt the HS33 made up for the extra faff involved with hydraulics by providing that much more stopping power. I've done a good job of setting up the cheapo Tektro cantis I now have fitted and the rear (I only had the HS33 on the rear, teamed it with a Deore V) works just as well.

  • hmmm, i want a geared cross bike but no idea what to go for gears and brakes wise. probably just go ss. its way easier
