I've got 3 sets of shiguras now, definitely prefer these to any stock Shimano or magura set I've had. All 3 are zee levers (m640?) With mt5 calipers and hoses.
Changeover is simple enough. use the magura hose from the caliper up, snip the hose at the magura lever nut, use a Shimano olive/nut/cover, bleed it with a magura bleed kit.
I feel like it has a lot more modulation and power. Modulation is hard to argue with, but possibly pads account for some of the power gains? I've also started using cheap eBay pads for these with reasonable results. Power is still amazing, possibly eat through them quicker though. The pads ARE more of a pain to replace, and bleeding isn't as simple and mess free as Shimano, but personally I'm going to say it's worth it
Results may vary, and you'll struggle to find an AMB article comparing them to the latest offering from hope and SRAM, but I'm definitely team shigura
