Never heard of any. The standard lever got a good shape, so it's not needed?

One black and one silver now??:eek:

e
I was hoping to find some black aftermarket ones :(

I had to order two silver ones...will keep the good black one as a spare.

Hey mang, how long you been in the states...hmmmm. Anyway how do you like the mini's, one of the local shops has a pretty good sale on them right now. I am a big boy (265lbs) and would need soemthing serious, I kept on cooking my XT's and would like some info on other brakes. Thanks.

Been in the states for like 7 years...

I have Hope M4 brakes with mini levers, but not the Mono Mini brakes.

MMike...how do you know AA_Freeze?

PS: Last week I ordered a set of lever blades from Hope - they sent me a set of Lever assembly's! Dammit! I hope they will take them back, I don't have $200+ to cover their error right now... :dead:

Hey guys, I'm gonna BUY HOPES for my bmw fq. What do you suggest, the minis (2 piston) the M4's or the M6's? did I get that right?

The 4's or 6's will work just fine. I love the power of the M6's on my Army.

You could just send the new Hope levers off to be anodised.... probably get it done locally pretty cheap.
it's still pretty pricey...I recall getting mine done a while back and it was still in the $60 ball park.

well I confirmed that Dangerboy indeed makes levers for Hope brakes. The look like these. Is anyone here using these (with one finger technique) on with their Hayes or Shimano brakes? how do they feel?
