My hand brake setup.

Hey,

Just installed my handbrake setup on my bike. I am running a magura 13mm master cylinder with a hohey dual caliper bracket with a single piston rear caliper. Locks right up with one finger. I would recommend this setup to anyone who is thinking about the magura master... definately worth the money. got it bled today and everything works smooth.

thats all just wanted to share my setup even though im sure theres alot of ppl running it also.

bad ***. i just got my handbrake on today too. some used brembo setup off an f4i. got her all bled. seems pretty good but the lever is only as long as my clutch, don't really know how to work the damn thing yet. after i clutch it up i just keep my finger on the clutch and can't quite get myself to take it off yet.

Look up pictures of handbrake setups just search for it. You'll see how everyone cuts the clutch lever short so u can use your index finger on the clutch and middle finger on the handbrake.
