Ive been looking at these also but Ive read that the cnc lever is not as comfortable as the standard one?? Is the cnc lever a 4 finger lever or is that just the photo?

As far as I've seen from the pics at Chain reaction Cycles and other European sellers (who tend to have more Magura spares than US sellers) the lever is really the same, it's just that onee is forged and the other is machined. The basic shape is the same, and it's pretty darned comfy. I switched my levers to CNC machined ECHO ones, but the Magura are more comfortable by far...but I wanted a little CNC bling on my ride, heh heh
If I hadn't purchased my HS33s already these Herzblut ones would be on their way to me already ;-)

hmm I like your style. And CNC and carbon does have a ring to it.
I think youve convinced me! Watch this space

:)OK Its done. A set of HS33's in RED with the CNC lever are winging their way to me as I type. The shop is apparently a main Magura dealer and also has a deal on citrus green pads made by Onza. They are softer than the original black and half price at £10 a set of 4. So I got a set just for the fun of it
. May be I'll start a new thread with a list of the bones I break when I fly over the bars first time out
Dont know why Im laughing cos I know Its gonna hurt!! ha ha.
