Eugene Posted October 1, 2023 Share Logic tells me it can be done, but sometimes cycling is not always logical. Can one mix any brand of caliper with any brand of lever? I understand that you cannot mix DOT and mineral oil brakes, but other than that, they should be compatible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertWhitehead Posted October 1, 2023 Share Correct yes, you can even mix oils as well if you wanted to . Some folks even use baby oil . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes if both use the same oil and you can connect them properly iit'll work BUT , the lever will still have to displace a similar amount of oil as the original Shimano levers with Magura calipers are a common case of these types of work arounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
