We are working flat out to expand our shipping network and hope to be able to deliver to the USA, Canada, UK and Switzerland in the course of 2023.
In the meantime you can buy the brake levers from the provider r2-bike.com worldwide.
Yes! We are constantly working on new products and are already testing other innovations for your bike.
Although we are still quite new on the market, some well-known industry giants have already reported on us. Pinkbike, World of MTB and The European Bike Project have already tested our products. You can find the articles on our home page.
root lever
Our brake lever is designed to be more stable to withstand even the heaviest loads in tough racing use. Due to the exquisite choice of materials and intelligent construction, it is more durable than all its competitors. Guaranteed!
Furthermore, with the root lever you cover a very large adjustment range with just one lever.
Detailed information can be found on the Root Levers article detail page.
If the stable root lever is actually damaged in a fall, we ask you to contact our customer support.
Simply send us an email describing the problem to: info@oakcomponents.com
The advantages are described in detail in the blog article " Technology " in our blog.
Naturally! We know the problem of loose springs from our own painful experience and have therefore developed a system that does not require any return springs. No spring - no problem!
The root lever uses the sweet spot of braking power and controllability. We get the maximum performance out of your MAGURA brake system, but we manage to provide even more controllability through an optimized lever ratio.
Due to a very large adjustment range, we can optimally cover all conceivable settings with one lever version. We don't like trying many different parts to find the right version. This wastes time and resources. Dear someone who is guaranteed to be able to do everything!
Our lever fits perfectly to all MAGURA MT brakes.
- MT8 (Raceline, Pro, SL, SL FM)
- MT7 (Pro & Raceline)
- MT6
- MT5
- MT4
- MT Trail (Sport & Carbon)
Yes, because the kink protection must be installed. We have intensively tested how the brake line can be reliably protected.
Plastic and rubber were quickly out of the running. Only the use of a steel spring could distribute the punctiform load over a sufficient area and protect the line in the long term. This means that spongy pressure points or oil leaks from leaking brake lines are a thing of the past.
Certainly not everyone needs our root lever. But if you place the highest demands on your equipment, you will certainly be happy with the Root-Lever.
None of the existing brake levers could convince us and achieve the durability that we want. That's not just our opinion, but also that of countless riders who trust our products.
We will expand our offer promptly. Of course, we always check which brakes we see the greatest need for. Stay tuned.
OAK designs for customizable bezel covers will soon be available for download on our website. After downloading, you can use the theme to customize the faceplate covers.
We are also working flat out to offer cover covers for Magura brakes ourselves.
Gear ratio is about 6.5:1
The root lever itself weighs 25.4 g. The anti-kink device (including the steel spring) weighs 5.4g. So the complete system for both sides weighs 61.6g.
Yes, the installation of the anti-kink protection is absolutely necessary. The function of the root lever is only guaranteed if it is supported on this component.
Our bend protection is also available in our shop with a raw finish. This component is currently only available from us in black. There is a color selection for the kink protection in the implementation to offer you even more customization options.
The packaging for a root lever is usually no more than 250 grams (0.25 kg). The dimensions are: 160mm x 200mm x 150mm.
We only rely on high-quality materials and superior manufacturing techniques. The use of materials from the aerospace industry guarantees durability with low weight. Our own tests and simulations, testing by independent laboratories and feedback from our team riders guarantee the longevity of all OAK products.
When manufacturing all of our high-performance components, we rely on several European partners with short supply chains. This protects the environment, but also has the advantage that the quality can always be kept at the highest level. It also secures valuable jobs in Europe. Everything made in Europe with love.
