Shouldn’t be too hard, you need a 205 and a 185 there are plenty around (I might have some but not a matching pair) I’m sure if you put a wanted ad on here you will find some or just go to your local hope dealer and order a new pair. I know they will make new ones as I asked a couple of months ago.

Cheers bud, really useful info regards Hope.

Re:

Just looking at that rear brake set up on the first page pic...

Without digging the frame out of the shed...is that calliper fixed?

I.e. can I get mono 6’s on there?

Re:

Yep that’s a No 2 caliper, I’ve got the same setup but with an is mount instead of a calliper so it can be done.

Cheers dude.

Seem to be on a bit of a learning curve with discs at the moment...

Re:

No probs at all mate I’ve picked up most of my knowledge from here too. Here’s a pic of the mount on my heckler.



I acquired that mount with some xc hubs, I then came across what you have with some bulb hubs, The only problem I’ve come across is that the No2 caliper is slightly thicker at the axle than the IS mount one so my ones are not interchangeable, what I have yet to try is swapping the xc and bulb axle but I’m not sure you can do that.
