Does any one know if TRP Parabox and Magura HS33 rim brakes would work together? I have some older Magura HS33 hydraulic rim brakes and I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to put them onto my cross bike.

I was wondering if they'd work with the new Sram hydraulic myself but people seem to think not, I'm sure someone could make them work though!

I found this yesterday. http://www.cxmagazine.com/trp-hylex-hyd ... cyclocross I realize its for single speed, which I am looking for. It's a mineral based system. Can't find it on their website yet.

I also noticed that article. With those levers you should be able to go use HS33 brakes.
