Re: WTD: 205mm Hope Lightning Bolt Rotor (5 bolt) I asked the bloke at Hope when I called a few months about the availability of 205mm rotors (I have a 6 bolt one) and he seemed to indicate that they will cut one to order if you go through a bike shop.

The Super Monster, if in primo condition, will be pretty much whatever you ask for it but US$300 at a minimum I'd reckon. Anyway post up a pic of that bad boy, sounds all kitted out for the Redbull Rampage!

Wouldn't mind a close up of the brake adapter. Looks pretty clean, nice job mate!

I think these are the first model Jr Ts from 1998 and are 100 mm travel.

That's going to be a helluva nice FSR.

Re: WANTED - Hayes 22mm rear HFX calliper - black Still looking? Not black but I think this a 22mm one. First I've seen in the local auctions.

Kenny approves!

BETD should do you some custom ones. Give them a ring, friendly guys there.

Sorry to be a nitpicker but I think the #8 caliper is actually an E4, the successor to the DH4. The rear is a DH4 though and I think a rear #3 caliper is for a 165mm rotor. A recent phone call to Hope confirmed that they still have all the spare parts for these brakes (I have E4s). Hope this...

Re: Hope DH4 brake set + rotors + spares They guy who did the Rotec restoration in the US was looking for one. Don't suppose you can take a picture of the other side of the #8 caliper.

Re: Hope DH4 brake set + rotors + spares That #8 caliper is going to make someone very happy.

Props to Dbraxis for a smooth transaction and willingness to ship to faraway lands.

Have you had a lookk through the "Show me your FSR" thread? Anything take your fancy. Heaps of different types of builds there.

Well we'd all feel like doing the second but the first is probably better. People are just plain odd, what can you do? Was at my lbs on Tuesday and mentioned to the owner I'd like him to build a 20mm wheel for me. He says OK then shows me this beautiful DeeMax wheel on a Saint hub he built last...

I have an old pair of leg guards but they only get worn going down, too uncomfortable to actually ride in. The main protection is from sticks, rocks and V12s! I look at the gashes and gouges on them and think "there but for the grace of Fox go my shins".

Doh! I thought it looked a bit odd. At least it's on the correct side of the caliper! Anyway cheers for the tip, want to give the front one more bleed so will change it round today.

Re: fs: hope pro2 front hub 20mm axle in blue 32h 'Spose I best check first whether it's a 5 bolt or 6 bolt one.

Re: fs: hope pro2 front hub 20mm axle in blue 32h Don't suppose you'd be prepared to post this to Japan? This is exactly what I'm looking for but understand if you can't ship internationally. Obviously prepared to pay extra for the postage but completely up to you mate.

Finally getting the FSR near to the standard required. Got a new to me Fox Vanilla with bushing kit from BETD in there and the Hope E4s hooked up and working well. Still a few things to do but she felt very nice up the mountain this afternoon. I'll almost certainly get my ambitions mixed up with...

More for my own edification than anything else I thought I'd present the successful conclusion to my E4 rebuild. Last week on a very rare night when I was here by myself I gave the blokes at Hope a ring to see if I could sort out my rear caliper. The young turk there freely admitted that the...
