Magura Continues Partnership with Troy Lee/ Honda Supermoto Team
Magura USA today confirmed that they will continue their successful partnership with Troy Lee Designs/ Honda. The defending Champions will campaign the '05 AMA Supermoto season with Magura products.
Magura's powerful Radial Master Brake will be mounted on the TLD/Honda powered bikes of Jeff Ward and youth sensation Chris Filmore. Ward is the defending AMA Supermoto champion as well as '03 champion; both championships gained with Magura stopping power. Wardy said, "I was really happy with the brakes great power and modulation over the last two years. Magura's radial brake has provided essential performance advantages needed for chasing another championship ".
Magura has made significant performance improvements for '05 with the introduction of the new 195 Radial Master. The new Radial's lever and cylinder body are forged. Increased lever adjustments provide optimum lever ergonomics and a compact unit. The angled radial base allows for mounting in difficult areas and reduces any clamping area. Magura's Radial also offers a significant price advantage over other radial pumps. As a result the Magura brake has quickly become the favorite, and it could be said most important, upgrade among Supermoto competitors.
