Hope Tech 4 V4 4-Piston hydraulic disc brakes, front and rear, with centre lock floating rotors

A complete Hope Tech 4 V4 brake set for gravity, enduro and e-bike riding: two fully bled Hope brakes - front with the right-hand lever, rear with the left-hand lever - plus a pair of Hope Floating Disc Centre Lock rotors (1.8 mm two-piece floating rotor, 410 stainless outer on a CNC alloy centre). Made in Barnoldswick, UK, and fitted by Tune Cycles.

Kit includes

Options

Brake colour: choose it on the front and rear rows - the first colour is the lever and caliper body, the second the accents; pick the same on both. Rotor sizes: Hope Floating Disc Centre Lock 180, 200, 220 mm (black centre; other colours on the rotor listings). The kit defaults to two 200 mm; set that row to 0 and pick another size, or mix sizes. Hope recommends 200 mm and larger for the V4. Rotor thickness the caliper takes: 1.8 to 3.3 mm (Vented, Floating, Fixed).

Fit-up parts, sold separately (linked here and shown with this kit): Hope brake mounts, black or silver for a rotor bigger than your fork or frame's native size (Hope's letter chart is on each listing), spare pads (racing compound V4 / GR4 / TR4, sintered V4 / GR4 / TR4, e-bike compound V4 / GR4 / TR4), and the Hope Easy Bleed Kit. Fluid: DOT 5.1 (DOT 4 compatible).

This kit is the Centre Lock version; the 6-bolt version is listed separately.

Already have rotors? Untick them and the price follows the parts you keep. Every part in this kit can be deselected, so a bike that only needs one end, or already has the right rotors, is not charged for the rest.

Fitting notes

Australian convention: the right-hand lever works the front brake and the left-hand lever the rear; the brakes are built that way. Hope ships every brake with a long hose, fully bled - most bikes need the hose shortened and the brake bled again, which is a workshop job (or the Easy Bleed Kit and Hope's instructions). Post-mount forks and frames take a rotor of their native size directly; a bigger rotor needs the matching Hope mount, and an IS mount always needs one. Centre Lock rotors need a Centre Lock hub and a lockring (40-50 N.m) - Hope’s anodised lockring is listed separately. Hope's Tech 4 has been succeeded by the Tech EVO range: this set is run-out stock. The V4 caliper is the only Hope caliper that takes the 3.3 mm Vented rotor. Hope notes the V4 is not compatible with every direct-mount 180 mm fork (fit the correct mount and a 200 mm rotor) nor with the 2021 Commencal Supreme DH 200 mm direct post mount.
