Hope Tech 3 V4 disc brake - blue
Description
The new Tech 3 brake lever replaces the Tech Evo brake lever. Hope has tried to keep the advantages of the Tech Evo brake lever but improve the ergonomics and integration of shifters on the handlebars.
The Tech 3 brake lever works with all current calipers and is 5% stronger than the Tech Evo lever. You can still adjust the lever width and pressure point, and the piston is actuated by a cam and roller system to allow the lever to be pulled without any empty travel or jamming parts. The two-piece clamp that attaches to the handlebar simplifies installation, as you don't have to remove anything from the handlebar to install it.
Some of Hope's customers have found the Tech and Tech Evo brake levers to be relatively bulky and found it hard to find space on the handlebars where they already had to mount triggers for the rear derailleur, front and rear suspension, and adjustable seatpost. For this reason, Hope went to great lengths with the Tech 3 to create a brake lever that integrates easily with the other triggers and remotes. As a result of this design, the brake lever is no longer identical for left and right. However, the Tech 3 can be combined with the Shimano I-Spec Trigger without a special lever clamp. For SRAM exists as an aftermarket part a filigree and inconspicuous lever clamp.
V4 Caliper: Further developed one-piece caliper machined from a single piece of 2014 T6 aluminum. Increased stiffness on the V4 caliper optimizes braking performance and the larger brake pad area provides better heat dissipation and reduced pad wear. The V4 including adapters and discs is lighter than its predecessor, the V2 brake. Discs: The V4 brake works with the conventional floating disc or the V4 internally ventilated disc. The internally ventilated disc provides superior braking performance. The concept is identical to our floating discs, but the internally ventilated discs allow air to circulate between the two braking surfaces. Lab tests have shown that an internally ventilated disc stays up to 15% cooler than a conventional floating disc. In addition, wet braking performance is improved because water can flow through the braking surfaces. The internally ventilated disc is best choice for mountain bikers who want to descend longer and steeper.
