MT A2 Brake

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve run the MT A2 on both city bikes and an e-cargo build—it performs way above its price. Straight cable routing makes setup super clean, and the braking is rock solid. Perfect for anyone who wants Magura reliability without maxing out the budget."

The Magura MT A2 Disc Brake offers an exceptional entry into the world of Magura’s renowned stopping power—without compromising on performance. Designed for use on e-bikes, cargo bikes, and daily commuters, the MT A2 delivers controlled, reliable braking with a clean aesthetic and simplified installation. Its straight cable routing is especially beneficial for modern bikes using internal headset routing, creating a tidy cockpit with minimal fuss.

The MT A2 uses Magura’s proven Royal Blood mineral oil for low-maintenance operation and long service intervals. A toolless pad change system and available pre-filled lever and caliper replacements make service fast and beginner-friendly. Despite its price point, the MT A2 punches above its weight with strong braking force, making it a trusted option for heavier bikes that require reliable deceleration on steep terrain or in stop-and-go traffic.

If you're looking for a durable, e-bike-ready hydraulic disc brake with easy maintenance and sleek design integration, the MT A2 stands out as one of the best value options available.
