You can see why it carried Aaron Gwin to the World Cup title this year. It had some great bit of detail with internal cabling and smooth curves. Its a fast looking bike!

hope bashring

Hope Tech always bring some fresh new parts to the cycle shows around the world and here was no exception. Check out the chainring with a built in bashguard on the outside with chain device to match.  It will be coming to market very soon...

hope cranks

We spotted a set of prototype cranks on one of the Hope team bikes at the show. When we asked for some details we were simply told ... "Yes they exist and don't expect to see them anytime soon. They are atleast a year away." They can't come soon enough!

hope jockey wheels

Hope have developed some jockey wheels in the usual colour pallet they are famous for. Perfect for adding an extra bit of bling to your bike!

hope pedals

Hope also had their long awaited take on the pedal on show and yet again, its available in all the usual colours!

The level of detail on the machining of these pedals is something to behold, its no suprise Hope take so long to develop new products!  but when they look as good as these we don't mind!
