Have a set of Magura RT6/8 mix. Just got a Shiv. Anyone have Specialized parts to mount these?
Also looking for ferrules, tubing and Royal Blood for the Maguras.
Thanks!
Look in the official Spec Shiv thread that's on the board. Buried in there are all the part numbers you need to have you local dealer order the parts, the parts are not very expensive you will need the brackets and the bolts.
Spec uses two rear brakes the stud on the front is to long to use with the brackets. I was able to remove the stud and cut it down to size. If you ruin the stud Magura will not sell just the stud you can only buy the entire caliper. They say the studs are not supposed to be removable but I had no issues removing mine and modifying it to work.
The Magura brake bleed kit will come with the brake fluid and new ferrules and most bike supply shops carry it. Comp Cyclist, Jenson etc.
Good luck I love the Magura brakes they work fantastic even on carbon rims.
