Bought as a replacement for the front brake of some Hope Mini/m4 that had IS no 8 calipers. The rear was OK but the front needed to be changed for the post mount forks I have looked for a no 9 74 M4 but could find one in decent condition at a reasonable price so I decided on this. Before installing it I lubricated bench tested it to make sure the pistons were working; they were sticking a bit so I lubricated them. I also bled the brakes whilst still on the bench to prevent contamination of the rotors had this been done in situ. It did take quite a while to do this successfully but with everything ok I installed it on the bike and then did a long gentle downhill quiet stretch of road to bed the pads into the disc. Although this caliper took some bleeding I am familiar with the bleeding technique on Hope and much prefer it over the Avid brakes that were on my wife's bike. The quality of Hope brakes is excellentRead full review
