You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
I'm currently running Hayes Stroker Trails on my no.1 bike and am not too impressed. I like the feel of the Juicy 5's I have on my hardtail but was thinking of something a bit more bling and possibly british. Are second hand Hope brakes a good investment? I'm thinking about a set of mono M4s or motos but have no experience of either of them.
Seriously. Not one person on here has an opinion.

Why not have the same brakes on all your bikes? Problem solved.
Search it. Done loads of times.
i prefer shimano to hope. prefer the lever feel; much less bitey.
Thanks cynic-al that's really helpfull.
The new search function is pish and mainly brings up classifieds. Four pages of people selling Hope rotors wasn't really the answer I was looking for.
I have Hope Mono Mini's and some old Deore's. The hope's looks really nice and are easy to look after but i prefer the Deore's. They have plenty of power, never need looking after and have a really nice feel to them.
I would try and find some XT or the like if i was you.
dude, chill - you have to give people more time to answer!
Personally I'd recommend some Formulas - I've found my Oros to be v powerful, with good modulation and not too much maintenance required. The mtb mags love 'em, too, and you can get various options from superlightweight to freeride suitable.
