Brake upgrade

[Hobo Mikey]

Has anyone fitted Hope Tech4 V4 brakes and Hope rotors to their Whyte E150RS and was it a big improvement over the Sram fitted as standard. Thinking of upgrading brakes but not if it only makes a small difference .

Watching this one with interest, I want to do this upgrade too Mike

I didn’t change the Sram
Code’s on my 150RS. i upgraded the levers to RSC. Made an immediate improvement and didn’t have to change the hoses.

Big fan of Hope but they are not as common in the US so I havent tried those yet. Personally I am a big fan of the "Shigura" system and run them on my eMTB and Park/DH bike. 220 rotors will spoil you.

Made the same, but also upgraded rotors and pads to Galfer. Huge improvement.
