Guest Omega Man Posted October 29, 2013 Share One kind stops the fatties well fed peopleOne kind stops the skinnies salad eatersSo you're saying that Hopes have more power and better feel than Shimano. 100% agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAAD4 Posted October 29, 2013 Share One of the many things I love about hope brakes, is that in the event that you do come off hard and wreck them, one can buy nearly every part as a spare... and make colour upgrades http://www.roteccycles.co.uk/ekmps/shops/rotec/images/hope-tech-replacement-lever-blade-2707-p.jpg http://www.wigglestatic.com/product-media/5360063042/X2borecapcomp.jpg?w=1300&h=1300&a=7 http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/images/custom/brakes/large_techcap3.jpg Patches are these anodised levers also on tarty bikes, as I cannot find them there?

Bobbo_SA Posted October 29, 2013 Share Holy crap. How on earth did he get that right? Appears to have gone AoT and somehow managed to get his arm to slide down the lever or lever down his arm, probably that one in 10 Trillion chance of it happening, hectic though.

Headshot Posted October 29, 2013 Share Nothing beats the Hopes. I run Shitmanos on the play bike and they suck. The Race X2 with 203mm rotors on the Morewood rock! Smooth, light and super powerful. Define "suck" please? I need to know becuase my shimano's seem to blow and I am wondering if there's something wrong with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Omega Man Posted October 29, 2013 Share No but what I am saying now is that you have trouble readingIf hope can stop a fat bloke and shimano stop skinny okes it follows that hopes have more power. You see the fat guy has more momentum so it's more difficult to bring him to a stop. See? It's called logic.
