Hope Brake - Tech 4 - V4 - Black / Black

Drawing on over 25 years of expertise in designing and crafting hydraulic brake systems, the Tech 4 V4 represents a significant advancement. With entirely new internal sealing mechanisms that minimize friction, coupled with a pivot engineered on roller bearings, this iteration allows for a decreased spring rate. Consequently, riders experience a lighter lever action, minimizing fatigue and preserving our renowned feel and modulation.

Moreover, the enhanced V4 caliper integrates hybrid-style stainless steel pistons featuring a phenolic insert. This innovative design facilitates smoother movement and reduces maintenance requirements while effectively managing high temperatures without transferring heat during intense usage scenarios.

Features:

– Increased power versus Tech 3.
– Lever shape updated to provide a more ergonomic shape orientated to provide the best mechanical advantage during braking.
– Hinged clamp reducing weight and to improve ergonomics.
– Tool free bite point and reach adjustments.
– Hybrid piston design.
– Rigid CNC’d one piece caliper.
– Compatible with a wider range of current shifter options.
– Complete brake available in Black or Silver with colour accent options of; Black, silver, purple, red, blue, or orange.
– Choose either standard or braided hose (braided hose is an extra cost).
– 30% pressure increase compared with the Tech 3 brake.
– Reservoir area increased to lower overall stack height.
– Shifter integration has been improved and now offers 30° of angle adjustment as well as neater packaging and compatibility with the latest shifters. Lateral adjustment on both sides of the master.
– Cylinder is also possible to give a wide range of lever position options.
– Hybrid-style pistons that allow smoother movement and require less maintenance, and a phenolic insert to manage heat transfer during extreme use.
– The Tech 4 retains the tool-free bite point and reach adjustments from the Tech 3.
– All Tech 4 brakes are supplied with new racing compound pads. For more information on all our pad compounds see the new pad guide here.
– Max rotor thickness with V4 Caliper 3.3mm.
