To celebrate the launch, the brake levers are available as a limited-edition kit - including a high-quality metal lunchbox as a bonus. Now you’ll have the perfect lunchbox for your next ride with your new brake levers!
It’s time for a brake lever that adapts to you - not the other way around. That’s exactly what the Magura GUSTAV ULTRA lever is designed to do. Three independently adjustable functions allow you to precisely tailor ergonomics (REACH ADJUST), bite point (BITE POINT ADJUST), and braking power (POWER ADJUST) to the rider, their riding style, and the terrain.
Forged from aluminum, precision CNC-milled, and finished with high-quality anodizing: a true design highlight.
The ULTRA brake lever from the GUSTAV brake family offers an exceptionally wide range of lever reach adjustment to optimally adapt to each rider’s preferences and hand size (REACH ADJUST). Thanks to its lever end, which is specifically designed for one-finger operation, the lever can be positioned even closer to the handlebar than with the PRO and ELITE versions.
Turning the adjustment screw toward the (+) increases the distance between the lever and the handlebar.
The braking force adjustment is derived from our legendary HC3 lever on the MT7. It determines the fundamental character of the brake—from maximum braking force to precise modulation. Thanks to a total adjustment range of 15% with predefined detent levels, you can always find the right braking characteristic (POWER ADJUST).
Depending on the selected setting, you can even achieve up to 10% more braking power than with the GUSTAV PRO brake lever.
Turning the adjustment toward (+) increases the braking power.
The bite point adjustment (BITE POINT ADJUST) allows you to adjust the piston preload in four defined increments. This enables you to individually adjust the free travel of the brake lever until braking force is applied. The adjustment range covers up to 25% of the lever travel. Simply turning the adjustment screw allows you to achieve a softer or more direct braking feel.
Turning toward (+) makes the brake engage sooner, reduces the free travel, and makes it more responsive.
“Following the development of the adjustable MT7 HC3 brake lever, we’re taking it one step further with this lever! I usually start with a medium setting for the Power Adjust (2/3) and the Bite Point Adjust also set to the middle position.” - Danny MacAskill
For loose or slippery terrain:
Adjust the REACH ADJUST to your personal preference. Reduce the POWER ADJUST for better modulation and increase the free travel (BITE POINT ADJUST) for more leeway before the bite point.
For surfaces with plenty of grip:
Adjust the REACH ADJUST to your personal preference. Increase the braking force (POWER ADJUST) for maximum braking performance and increase the bite point (BITE POINT ADJUST).
