    Hello Everyone!

    First time poster here. I have a Specialized Vado SL Eq with Tektro HD-R510 hydraulic disc brakes and am thinking about switching to Magura brakes MT5 or 5E, MT4 or 4E for increased braking power. Any thoughts on the swap--or am I better off leaving well enough alone?

    I'll give you $70 for them used, no rotors and I assume the pads are shot. Deal?

    A bad idea. Your Tektros are high quality brakes. Magura brakes might even not be better than Tektros; some models could be actually worse. The main point, however, is Magura brakes are Post-Mount and are incompatible with your modern Flat-Mount e-bike frame.

    I have decided to "Leave it Be" with the Tektros. I did a couple of steep descents and the stopping power was more than adequate. Thanks for your responses. Sorry, FiremarshallDave, the Tektros are staying on my bike.😉
