I've got some 11speed shimano I-spec ii shifters mounted to my Hope Tech levers via the Hope adaptor.

I've not seen the i-spec ev shifter in the flesh so can't work out if it will mount the same or not.

Does anyone know from first hand experience?

Why not contact Hope?

It's plan B. Thought I'd ask if anyone here had tried it.

Unless they snuck it out in the last couple of weeks there's no iSpec EV > Hope convertor.

Have a look at these:

Seems to be a few different combinations.

It looks like the ispec ev shifter will mount to the Hope mount I'm using for the XTR ispec 2 shifter, but it probably won't give the same range of adjustment.

Already asked Hope a few months ago, they say yes but there'll be less range of movement than shimano on shimano. I've got the same set up.

I had the same problem when moving back to Shimano for the shifter. In the end I went with a band on shifter to save any hassle.

Installed it yesterday and tbh the position is probably better than the all in one mount thing on previous set-ups (with Hope tech 3 lever also)

Thanks @twonks. We seem to be following each other's threads. I noticed you'd done that on the SRAM/Shimano 12 speed hybrid thread.

Yes it works, plenty range of movement, got mine the same position as previous m8000, just waiting on my cassette to arrive.
Though you forgot to thank the guy who actually gave you the proper answer.
