"JEFF COOK: Hello, and I am Jeff Cook from All Season Sports, here today to talk to you about some of the latest and greatest and some of the coolest stuff for bikes on behalf of Expert Village. Today, we're going to be talking about disc brakes for the mountain bike. You've probably seen these out there. They're being featured on bicycles much more these days, and they've been around now for a few years. We've made some great advancements in this area. One of the cutting edge and longest active companies in this area would be the drilling company Magura. Magura has a full-featured brake here in the Marta SL, also being the latest weight full disc brake out on the market right now. It's featuring a carbon fiber lever with an aluminium main body and aluminium calipers to it. This particular one as I mentioned is a hydraulic disc brake and works very well in both stopping power and keeping it nice and lightweight, and what a cool upgrade to your mountain bike."
