Hope continues to innovate, and we Monk a Moo believe they have outdone themselves with latest X2 Race design. The X2 Race replaces the Mini X2 Pro, and is the biggest development and product in the 2010 line up by Hope. It is a race/high performance XC dedicated brake, and its lightweight and cutting edge technology make it the most desirable brake out there. It has a totally new master cylinder assembly, with refined CNC maching and top of the line race ready spec, and a superlight master cylinder body with aftermarket direct mount shifter clamps available separately for SRAM, XT and XTR. The X2 Race comes with an aluminum blade and resevoir cap, alloy clamp bolts, and alloy backplates on the X2 pads. Titanium bolts are used in Caliper and Mounts. The standard weights are as follows:
267g with the 160mm 3 Bolt Steel Rotor, 284g with 160mm 6 Bolt Floating Rotor, and approximately 330 grams with 6 Bolt Steel Rotor
Optional Stainless Hose can be preinstalled (adds weght)
One Kit Includes: Rotor, standard black hose, lever, caliper, and hardware to outfit a front OR rear. Brakes are also pre-bled and ready to bolt onto your bike. If desired, we will also pre-install stainless hose instead of the standard black hose (choose option below).
