after playing with the brakes they work ok but the problem I think are the levers they are two finger levers and to lock the rear wheell on a small slope at 10 mph takes a lot of force. they are fine on flat ground. and suck on steep slopes when you need quick brake action to make it around the corner on that trail. my wife can use her brake but not in emergencies or fast she takes a bit to find it each time. going down long hills I keep it around 20. they have to be e bike compatible and the Magura's have a 4 piston brake that is. that may be the way to go. don't know if I can fit a cooling rotor on the bike.I will have the shop do the work I am not up to that.. I have already put new pads on I sanded the rotors and cleaned them first and broke them in properly .I have some koolstops with a copper back on the way that may work better.
