Hope have created a clever remote cable to hydralic reservoir - am quite tempted to get a set on my Kona as the cable disks are a bit pants..

A fair bit cheaper than £1000 di2 hydralic / electric setup.

Only a little. smile

I bought a set recently 2nd hand - I like the look of them and wanted hydraulics instead of mechanical but I can't pull the lever well enough from the hoods to be confident of actually stopping the bike!
Thats exactly what you dont need ! I take it the levers work as a well as a 105 or shimano equiv when shifting?

I've been testing some of these for my local shop, and so far they are great, big improvement over normal cable, not to bulky and the pad adjustment was super easy.

They dont look bad at all, i guess it'd be good to know how they compared against say a sram and Hopes twin v solution..
