After 3 hours of climbing you did it, finally – you reached the top of the mountain and now you’re looking forward to the descent. High speed, tight corners, adrenalin! But…. slowly but surely the grin on your face is fading away. Bad breaking performance, no pressure point, your hands hurt – fading! Almost every biker has already made this kind of experience. It can definitely turn your good mood into a bad one, but most of all, it can turn out to be seriously dangerous as well.

Owners of a 2007 Specialized bike, well not all of them, but the really high-end ones, had so far an enviable privilege: They were the only guys out there having red Magura Marta SL’s on board. What remains a privilege for Specialized as a MAGURA OE customer will be available for aftermarket end users from March 07 onwards.
