I love Hope Tech since 1995 !!!

Who's coming back to this video years later? It's one of the first I watched by them and it's amazing how meticulous they are in the manufacturing process. Whne I first saw this video I was 27. I couldn't really sretch to their components, but now I'm 35 and have a lot more riding under my belt, I have treated myself to Hope floating roators, their Gravity stem, and a seat tube clamp. I am slo going to get the tubeless vales, and probably some spacers. Eventually, I hope to upgrade the calipers.

Seems like a lot of wasted material TBF, but a cool video nonerthe less. Hope is whee it's at for quality parts! Just ordrered some floating rotors, a ste,. amd a hope seat post clamp

Would be cool to see the same video for the RX4+ calipers and the "push one side of the pistons out" part.

Is it the same steps for tech 4 levers? V4 calipers tho

Terrible video

❤❤❤❤❤❤

My recent set of hope tech 4 e4's came horribly primed with fluid and one side of the pistons (on both sets) will not move. A huge pain..... I've still been riding on them strong with good power but hoping to fix this as my Tech 3 E4's have always been are still much better feeling. Also the newer spanners don't fiit very well nor provide enough resistance to retract the calipers much as my previous brakes. (My previous brakes are v6 in front and e4 rear.)

I disnt know you was a british company you can count on my custom

Hope breaks are the best I ever had. Unfortunately I had to sell mine and now I don’t have hope breaks anymore. I never had to bleed my Hope brakes and they worked flawlessly for years

Without a doubt the very best bike components manufacturer in the world, the quality is second to none & best of all it’s manufactured in the UK, keep on doing what you’re doing-it works well…! 👍🏻

Bering size????

convert from what to what??

Cold spray works wonders when working with bearings. I will ignore everything regarding grease and forget about the big green seal - and the one trick pony seal tool. I got insane clicking and free spinning with just a dab of motor oil. It will survive about 5 minutes in Norway, but I like that people here when I am coming. Enjoy trying to fit the freehub without loosing the pawls three times.

Old but valuable! Thank you!

Can I use any break hose with the hope break or does it have tk be a hope hose ??

Its good not just that hope make parts but also come and provide rewards at the pmba enduro races, I have full hope components on my full suspension and my sister has an academy hardtail thanks a lot to the academy and hope❤❤❤

This is the fastest thing i've ever ridden... It's so fast that I have to get used to having a faster bike... I want. To take my wheels to bed with me..... I love my Hope 5 Hubs!

What's with the clown color scheme?

Even as a mountain biker who’s never even seen a tt bike in person, I can’t deny that’s a gorgeous bike

Outstanding!! I got a Tech 4 for my bike and I am completely happy with it! Great job!!

Amazing video I just did my hope tech 4 e4s thanks man ur the man

Anyone had the circlip holding the pawls in come off?. After a month my wheel wouldn't freewheel, took off freehub to find the circlip had come off and rounded off the lip where it sits, hope sent out new freehub body, its now happened again on the new one

How to convert the 150mm to 148mm

I'm very curious who made frame for Hope for these bikes, they looked amazing!

Why the pawls so rusted

Still rocking my 2008-2010 ish M4 Union Jack edition brakes in raw aluminium. Sexy as hell, incredibly sturdy and so nicely adjustable. Those things are still top of the line brakes almost 15 years later. Bought them used around 2016 for 180 Euros which was the top end of my budget for a pair of brakes and one hell of a deal. The only real upgrade I did was switching to steel hoses and the occasional disc replacement. Have thought about maybe upgrading to a tech 3 lever in the future, but this would only be for the looks. Also: I think I may have been lucky with mine but I have not needed to bleed them in the past 4 years.

I've recently bought a set of Trial Zones so this video will come in handy when I need to bleed them.

Great vid! Which cutter/s do Hope recommend for the steel braided hydraulic hose?

"take your Hope stuff with you, and 9 times out of ten you're not going to have any problems" So a 10% failure rate then? 😂

Builded on a new Legend By Bertoletti titanium frame, soon pictures on my insta really beautifull calipers RX4 and far better than the original....

Worked lile a charm and i never did bleeding on any break before. Im just kind of stucked with rear brake where i had to take the hose out as i had to rpute it through the frame, small portion of bubbles still come out. The break itself isnt spongy so I guess i just ride it a bit and then rebleed.

A vice is also a press chances are you got one. A clamp (woodworking) is also a press. Be creative.

The best of the best!

So how many NM should you tighten the bleed cap? And question to any owners of theses breaks my breaks have been bleed 4 times by a bike shop they called hope and hope told them to swap out the cable so they did well still having the same problem so when I flip the bike upside down the break losses pressure the the front break doesn't do this at all and when I first bought this set neither was the rear I ride a lot so sometimes I have to flip my bike upside down to work on it.. does anyone know what it could be?

Looks like and Advertisement for SRAM and Shimano breaks! what a shitty method this was to bleed Hope brakes. Hope is a great company and makes great products, but they really need to get it together with their tutorials. This is embarrassing and makes their brakes seem waaaaay more complicated than they actually are to bleed.

at @5:57 you saying "just back the bleed port off" wtf does it mean? close it or open it?

Huge fan of hope. Rx4+ brakes on all my bikes. 🎉

In 2019 I was fortunate enough to have a new XC bike built and fitted with a X2 Uno brake system. Without Hope, my bike wouldn’t exist, wouldn’t be as safe. I would (and have) bet my life Hope quality and support.

A good brand, filled with good people, making brilliant stuff.

Hope plz sponsor me

Truly great to see a world class product from a UK owned company manufacturing in the UK

Brilliant work guys keep it up 👍

Awesome to see some manufacturing still taking place in the UK!

Ive still got a Hope Titanium rear hub on my old ( have actually replaced the bike after 18 yrs. ) Dr Jekyll Dirt Jump bike. Hammered the crap out of it and if i still, on occasions pull the old thing out of the garage, it runs as smooth as anything wlse out there and its hardly been serviced over the years

Any chance of 2.3mm floating rotors?

I love you guys...Anodised black caliper, and gold cylinder bore caps, mono minis are the most beautiful brakes in the world. ❤ (running an old retro pair.......still fine)

If it wasn’t for Chris King I would probably buy a lot more Hope products but lifetime bearing warranty vs 1 year is a no brainier. The bearings on my CK bb are original and have been on every mtb for the past 13-14 years.

Brilliant!

I'm proud to have at least one British component on my bike, Hope Rocks ❤
