I've got hope M4 brakes on my bike and after a quick check over I've noticed a crack on the rear caliper on the part where the bolt goes through. Has anyone else had or know of similar faults with these calipers?

I'm going to give them a ring on Monday and see what they say. No warranty as they were used when I got them just wondered if it was a common fault or a one off

It's rare, but not unheard of, we had one replaced under warranty a couple of years back.

The joy of Hope is that all the bits are easily available. If a new part is needed you could have it the next day.

they might be able to get you a caliper at a good price, which year is it?

Which m4? As said above, hope are great at looking after their customers. However, if it's the old silver m4 with the caliper halves bolted together, they simply don't exist as new spares anymore. Start watching eBay and classifieds
