Re:

That’s a great find with the box and all the paperwork I bet there aren’t many around like that nowadays.

Do you have a BOX mount for the caliper?

Re:

Funny you should mention that...

The forks can as a package with another Mono 6 Ti front brake (again original box) that came already mated to a BOX mount!

£140 shipped for all of it.

Re:

Forks and brake that was a bargain. If you have a spare caliper I’d be interested if you want to sell it.

Re:

I thought it was a pretty good deal too.

Nice chap as well.

In theory have a spare front brake but tempted to hold on to it for an STS build that’s slowly edging along...

Will keep you in mind though dude!

No worries mate.

the rear caliper is a floating set up.... it moves with the chain stay , to reduce brake induced rise of the rear suspension.
the left side of the cailper is made to suit this bike.. i have seen them re machined to accept hayes brakes back then...]

i wanted one of these with slalom dho's to ride xc on....


still want one...

Interesting it looks the same as my No 6 but mine is fixed, don’t suppose you have some better pics do you?

Not of the hope setup.. I have the lobo supplied white industry/Rockshox/amp setup on my lts2..

The rear hub axle is abbreviated, and is like 115mm verse 135.. hope may still sell them

Re:

Ok thanks, not sure hope will have much left from that era but hay you never know. WWC could I get some close ups of the caliper and how it is connected to the frame please, I may have set mine up wrong???
