Because of the large variety of forks and frames avai- lable on the market it is impossible for MAGURA to test all possible combinations. If you mount any of our brake systems always make sure that the brakes are in conformity with the bicycle.

7. Exception Julie rear caliper: Contrary to all other MAGURA disc brakes the front and rear caliper of a MAGURA Julie are identical. However you must use the black 1mm spacers between fitting eyelets and caliper on a Julie rear brake. If necessary you might have to use here as well additional 0,2mm spacers for a clean and drag free posi- tioning of the caliper.

In case of a constantly dragging disc brake causing noise your frame is badly aligned. In such a case you should contact your dealer who can care with the MAGURA Gnann-o- mat disc optimizer for a totally even surface of the disc brake mounts. These are abso- lutely necessary for a drag free function of your brake.
The Julie is a low-pressure system and comes with the same nylon hose that is used on MAGURA rim brakes. The Clara is a high- pressure system and comes with a reinforced hose, the „MAGURA Disc Tube“...

Brake pad wear: The brake pads are subject to wear due to friction bet- ween rotor and pads. Both the Clara and the Julie disc brake feature a fully automatic pad wear adjustment. Regularly check the thickness of your brake...

Tip: check the pad wear with the groove of the YELLOW transport device. Pad does NOT fit to the groove (picture): o.k.! Pad does fit to the groove: change the pads! Use only genuine MAGURA brake pads. MAGURA cannot guarantee a correct function of the brake if you use brake pads from other manufacturers, which were not tested.
2. Prepare a new hose: the nylon hose of the Julie disc brake is identical with the one of the MAGURA rim brakes. Clamp the hose as shown with the help of the two clamping jaws (code: 0321 239) into a vice. Hose has to stick out 1,5cm as shown.

Slightly tighten the clamp screw in that position. 2. For filling and bleeding a MAGURA disc brake you will need the disc brake service kit (Code: 0721 294) including all necessary tools.
