Description:Floating and Vented Versions
New “Moto” lever giving smooth, progressive feel. Bite point
control to adjust lever feel. Split clamp for easy fi tting. Integrated
master cylinder reservoir for easy bleeding. Adjustable lever reach.
Braided hose as standard.
Caliper – One piece caliper, machined from solid billet of aluminium
with stiffer caliper bridge and 3D machined pockets. As well as reducing
weight, this also allows us to make a more rigid caliper, improving the
lever feel. Silver caliper with black bore caps allowing access for
servicing. Caliper pistons are now made from phenolic to isolate the
caliper from the heat generated in the pads.
Disc - Available with a fl oating rotor or our revolutionary VENTED disc.
This new disc reduces disc temperatures by over 15%.
Use - Freeride + All-mountain + DH

I have had problems with Hope brakes over the years and have just put up with it but I am getting fed up now. Its just a lack of quality control with some of the units. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

from Colorado Springs Date Reviewed: February 28, 2008 | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Price Paid: |
$600.00 | | Purchased At: | monkamoo | | Strengths: | Quality, design, strength, simplicity, power, customizable everything. | | Weaknesses: | Price, weight | | Similar Products Used: | Hayes, Shimano | | Bike Setup: | Intense SS | | Bottom Line: | These brakes are awesome. They are so damn powerful, I can't let other people ride my bike anymore because no matter how much I warn them, they always grab too much front brake and flip over the bars. When riding Keystone, I couldn't get them to fade. They only worked better with more heat, like some high quality automotive brakes. They are pretty heavy though, at over 600g per wheel. The modulation at speed is great, but they aren't the best brakes for manualling because they're so powerful. Definitely a great brake, wont dissapoint!! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$450.00 | | Purchased At: | mtbr!!!! | | Strengths: | Power, nice modulation, power, looks, power, quality, and ummm.. . .power! | | Weaknesses: | price, vented rotors cost 90 bucks a pop!! power might be a little extreme if you are under like 190 lbs. | | Similar Products Used: | hayes nines, hope mono 6 ti's | | Bike Setup: | yeti asx with a 40 up front | | Bottom Line: | Well, i got a great price on them used so im not gonna complain about the price. I weigh in at 205 without gear and had never been completely satisfied with my other hopes. Ive ridden out in devils den arkansas and so far the power is amazing. I cant comment on the fade resistance yet cuz i havent ridden them on the big mountains yet, but doubt they will fade at all. If you are a clyde, these are the downhill brakes for you! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
