    Rotors for 2-piston Shimano BR-MT410 extremely limited?

    I wonder if the compatible Magura pads are any wider to compensate for the reduced height. When I got my 203mm Centerline rotors and noticed the shorter outer pad contact surface, I was concerned that the inner portion of the pads would wear differently than the rest of the pads, because they...

    E-Horn?

    I originally bought the refillable Eco Blast horn from the boating supply section of a hardware store. You simply pumped it up with a bike air pump via schrader valve to 100psi. The button/actuator broke after many years of use, so I added some fittings to connect it to a male air compressor...

    Rotors for 2-piston Shimano BR-MT410 extremely limited?

    If you check Maguras website regarding their MT 2 piston calipers, they use the 7P brake pads, which are considered narrow type pads, they are not the same as your Shimano B05S brake pads that fit your BR-MT410 calipers. I wish these manufacturers' websites would list more dimensions than simply...

    Rotors for 2-piston Shimano BR-MT410 extremely limited?

    I was looking at upgrading to 203mm 2 piece rotors, but I thought they were all designed for 4 piston calipers with the narrow style brake pads. Most of the ones I looked at said the 2 piston calipers with the wide style brake pads weren't compatible due to clearance between the caliper and the...

    Rotors for 2-piston Shimano BR-MT410 extremely limited?

    I was thinking of getting the P20.11 pads, I figured the E10.11 will at least be an improvement over the OEM A10.11 pads that my bike came with. Are the P20.11 quiet, no squealing like some sintered metallic pads.

    Rotors for 2-piston Shimano BR-MT410 extremely limited?

    I received the Tektro TR203-52 rotors and E10.11 pads, the outer rotor brake pad contact area is approx. 17mm vs the SRAM Centerline RT-CLN-A1 203mm rotors which were 13.5mm. In the pics, the brake pads align with the contact patch on the Tektro rotors, you can see the brake pad overlap on the...

    Brakes levers stopping motor? How to fix?

    Will do, thanks for the heads-up. I don't want to cause any problems, just anxious to share what I've learnt as a new e-bike owner.

    2 piston vs 4 piston brake pad lifespan.

    Do you realize that I'm still sharing useful information that someone may see, regardless whether or not the original poster sees my response.

    2 piston vs 4 piston brake pad lifespan.

    Sorry about that, I just recently joined the forum and I was bored last night. I know I'm late to many conversations, but I still want to share any info I have.

    That's what I figured was the correct brake pad to rotor mating surface, as far towards the outer edge of the rotor for the most potential braking force.

    Rotor Cleaning

    Definitely nice if you have a standard transmission, I use my clutch more than my brakes on my car.
