Dual caliper bracket Vs. Gangster Handbrake?

210 to 290 Vs. 170 to 250

I never really thought about it until it was brought to my attention but there I was about to order a magura 13mm and I was kind of upset because the cheaper places to get them from were sold out so I called Full Throttle Inc. and spoke with Bill. Basically Bill made me feel like a total tool because I thought I needed a magura and really all I needed was a gangster *** dual caliper bracket and two new calipers (if your lucky you may have some laying around). You'll also need a new master but I got one from a friend off a 954 for free99 so for 220 I've got a new bangin *** set up in the mail saved me some money and brake pads. Hope this helps!

Yeah.....from what I've heard, you don't NEED a Brembo or a Magura with the dual quad bracket......but.......with a Magura it is AMAZINGLY powerful(in a very good way)!!

Re: Dual caliper bracket Vs. Gangster Handbrake?

Who has all ran the single 4 piston caliper bracket from FTI? How do those work overall? Just curious. I know alot of ppl are still just running junction valves to singles and a good master and love it. So im thinking a good master (magura) with the single 4 piston should be money too?

I picked up a cheap 07 1000RR master I'm planning on running with the dual quad bracket. Pumped!

im running the single four piston. its money. magura 16mm with the old school fti junction box, the original. foot brake takes some getting used to. took about two to three rides for me to get used to it. but foot brake circles seem way easier. more control. i would suggest it to anyone.
