I dream of my hopes at night. You will love them.
so ive heard. the funny part is that a 180mm rotor looks normal on a 29er wheel. odd at best.manhattanprjkt83 said:
anyone think that the mechanical advantage of hydraulics will be odd compared to the avid mech's that im used to?
now I cant wait to get the 160mm rotor and M2 for the rear on that bike. cambria's back-ordered on that one. doh!
So are the lever on the M4's and minis the same?
What is the difference between the monos and the 'regular' ones?

my C2's grip'd out on my M1. against my better judgement I bought hopes for my brothers LeToy, 4piston w/ new mini levers. They too Grip out, Lever finds it's way to bottoming out on the grip. This is after multiple bleed sessions with the Hope bleed kit. Also, sometimes the brakes will work fine, then all of a sudden the lever will bottom out on the grip. A few minutes later, they will work again.
I like the looks of Hope but the power of hayes. Thank god I have Hayes on my beast.

There are no "regular" ones anymore, I don't think. They're all mono this year AFAIK.Wumpus said:
The difference is that the mono's use a one piece body rather than the two pieces used in previous years. Two piece bodies have a tendancy to seperate under heavy braking, thus reducing power.
Though hopes are pimptified... I hate cambria with a passion that extends beyond even GW Bush.
An excellent choice of brake!!!!!! They will blow your Avids away
sorry to hear it- ive ordered very seldomly with them. webcyclery is my main mail order location, that and i enjoy chatting with mean todd.golgiaparatus said:
