Magura Type 5.1 Pads

No. The Type 5.1 pads are specifically engineered for legacy Magura Marta systems from 2008 and earlier. They will not fit current Magura brake calipers.

These pads use a harder organic compound designed specifically for longevity rather than aggressive initial bite. They are built to last longer and provide consistent, reliable stopping power for riders who prioritize durability over high-performance racing characteristics.

The steel backing plate provides essential structural integrity, ensuring the pad maintains its shape and performance under heat and pressure. It is a robust choice that helps prevent the pad from warping, which is particularly important when maintaining older braking systems.

Likely not. Because these pads prioritize wear life and durability, they offer more modulation rather than the immediate, sharp bite found in softer, high-performance racing compounds. They are best suited for riders who prefer a predictable, consistent feel over time.

Yes, just like any new brake pad, you should perform a proper bedding-in process. Find a safe, flat area and perform several controlled stops from moderate speed to help the pad material transfer evenly onto the rotor surface for optimal performance.
