Hope bore cap tool for tech V2

[ishaw]

I'm looking to service and replace pistons on a set of hope tech brakes. I've seen some tools but when I compare the current V2 callipers to the older ones, the bore caps are different. Which took do I need for the older V2 callipers?

If you measure across the lobes of the extraction socket, i could see which tool it is. I was always mildly narked by the number of visually identical hope extraction tools

Thanks for the offer. I've discovered that the callipers I'm looking at servicing are actually X2, and also share the same bore cap as the newer V2/4 I have on some tech 3s I also need to take apart so that's one tool, 2 sets of brakes.

When I get to the older tech V2/4s I'll circle back I'm sure.

Here's a link to a hope tech doc that has details, though still a little confusing as some differences in caps for the same calliper depending on year.
