Magura

Gustav Elite Disc Brake and Lever

Magura Gustav Elite Disc Brake and Lever delivers much of the control and heat management riders associate with the Gustav platform, tuned for hard-use riding like enduro, gravity, and high-speed e-MTB duty. An oversized, one-piece forged 4‑piston caliper, larger piston sizing, and extra-large pads work together to maintain a defined lever feel with strong modulation when speeds rise and descents get longer.

What sets it apart for aggressive riding

• Oversized 4‑piston forged caliper - One-piece aluminum caliper prioritizes stiffness and heat stability for consistent braking on long descents
• Optimized piston sizing (12 mm master / 19 mm caliper) - Reduces overall pressure level to limit pressure loss from hose expansion, helping deliver a more defined pressure point with controlled modulation
• MDP 13 “Black” pads (included) - Extra-large pad format with 176% more pad wear volume vs. MT7 8.X pads, designed to balance power, stability, low noise, and durability to extend service intervals
• Rotor compatibility for MDR-S - Caliper is designed around Magura MDR-S rotors in 2.5 mm or 2.0 mm thickness without requiring a refill when changing between those rotor options (rotors sold separately)
• Reach-adjust lever with Carbotecture blade - Tool-adjust reach helps dial in hand position for comfort and leverage while keeping a crisp, controllable feel
• EASY LINK hose connection - Plug-and-play interface between hose and brake master simplifies installation and removal during service
