Will not fit

  • Will not fiterror · ForkFront brake mount: Magura MT5 is a post-mount caliper and Fox 32 Taper-Cast has a flat mount - two different mounting standards, so the caliper does not bolt on as it is. The part that bridges them is a rotor-size-specific flat-mount-to-post-mount adapter. A shim or adapter may make other sizes or standards work, but that is a modification, not a fit. On 2 of the 31 verified forks in this catalog.

The checker compares the dimensions listed in what we check, and what we don’t. “No conflicts found” means no conflict among those dimensions — not a guarantee that a build works. Errors mean it won’t fit; warnings mean it works but check; infos are notes.

5 further fields the checker looks for are not published by Magura, so we leave them blank rather than estimate them, and those 5 checks stay silent on this front caliper. They are excludes rotor, brake closed system, lever makers, design rotor thickness and design rotor thickness maximum. Each is recorded as “not stated by the maker (not checked)”.

Checked against

The checker ran this model against every verified part below that it has a slot for, the same way it checks a build in the builder. What follows is the verdict it actually produced for that specific pairing — not a recommendation, and not a guarantee any of these parts fits your own bike.

6 of 497 counterparts with a page of their own that the checker actually probed this model against, in alphabetical order by brand and model — never by price, popularity or the verdict itself.
