Guest Omega Man Posted October 29, 2013 Share You know Hope is releasing an update version in a few months?Man the new stuff looks siiiiick!!!But those are still veery nice esp in stealth coloursIt's out and available on CRC. Looks like the M4's have been replaced by E4 (Still a 4 pot) V2's are no longer there and seem to have been replaced by the V4. X2 looks to remain. This is just my assumption based on my window shopping on CRC. And the Tech Lever has had a few updates and isn't flip flop anymore. It's called Tech 3.

Oh yes... very VERY good looking brakes! I think we need a Hope Appreciation Thread. Whatever with all these sheeple that think shimano XT's are the beat brakes on the world, just because some salesperson in their LBS said so.http://mountainbike-parts.ch/images/scheibenbremsensets/HP-TEEV-M4-SB.jpg Edited October 29, 2013 by patches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes it is bliss. If you compare Hope to XTR and SAINT. Which I think is a fair comparison. They are generally the same if not a little cheaper.

Caerus Posted October 29, 2013 Share Something is on its way from CRC, woohoo My last cycle purchase for a loooooooooong time. Goodies have already been dispatched, how long again is the wait for a CRC parcel? Parcel is already at Heathrow about to board a plane to Cape Town, If I'm lucky I'll have my goodies by Monday Edited October 30, 2013 by Caerus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark Posted October 29, 2013 Share I'm sure I saw a different pic for the new hope tech replacements MC?That pic is not the hottest looking brake, I wish they would just sort that lever out for nice single finger braking, have to put my levers so far in board and keep the lever adjusted out a tad to much. XT lever is the bomb, want to try heat my tech levers and bend them like a XT lever hahaha... Edited October 29, 2013 by Skylark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig82 Posted October 29, 2013 Share . XT lever is the bomb, want to try heat my tech levers and bend them like a XT lever hahaha...No dude! what are you saying! Just get wider bars... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark Posted October 29, 2013 Share Got 740mm bars, plenty wide but the Hope levers suck a little bit for 1 finger braking.Well they not terrible but the ergonomics could be better - they need more of a hook at the end, at the moment they too flat, for me at least. You can't have everything tho! Edited October 29, 2013 by Skylark craig82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipV Posted October 30, 2013 Share got a sms from the bank saying that a payment has been made from our communal credit card. freaked out until I saw that it was made to CRC. I reckon (hope) the wife ordered me a birthday present. hopefully in three weeks time I can boast with a cool item or three.
