    I bought it second hand . only cost 150 or something . was off a Honda crf . just made the made a bolt the right length to fit .

    there are complete Chinese copies of the magura that are really cheap .

    rode the bike once . it's too rich everywhere apart from 3/4 throttle .
    have a slide and a few needles and jets to throw in it next time I get out .
    got a 6.4 kg spring in the rear but I think it's still too soft . think I need to be in the 7s or even an 8
