Hope Brake Appreciation Thread

[patches]

So we know of the Avid Appreciation Association, and of course, there are plenty pf people out there who rave about XTs

 

But what about those brakes with brilliant functionality, exceptional performance, and of course, unparalelled build quality.

 

I am of course, talking about Hope Brakes.

 

Here's a thread to showcase these stunning stoppers, as well as share your love for your Hope brakes.

Mmmmmm those are some sexy brakes. The Terminator would use Hope Evos if he rode a mountain bike.

 

Is it wrong to have a woodie right now?
