Hope had a whole bunch of new stuff to show here, including a cassette, Pro 4 hubs, and a prototype carbon handlebar. They’ve also started anodising things in a new colour, orange, which was mainly on display attached to an extremely blingy Santa Cruz Nomad.
The new Hope Tech SD wheetsets come in 26 or 27.5. The new rim has a 28mm internal width. Rim weights, respectively, are 619 and 648g. Built wheels: 26 front 1025g, rear 1150g. 27.5 front 1064g, rear 1198g.
If it wasn’t for that acid yellow and yellow spring combo…
Oh if only I could win large sums of money…..
Surely they should have used an Orange as a demo bike for this ginger kit!
If they make that carbon bar with those graphics……I will have to get one
Is love with metal normal?
The next bike project is coming together nicely….
Hope cassette? Won’t hold my breath.
