Hope Front Hydro brake useful to anyone? Believe it’s the O2 variant from 98-99?? Taken off a stripped bike a few months back. Untested by me, but it’s beautifully engineered and might be useful to someone for a build.

£15

Collection Cheltenham or happy to post for £4 to mainland UK.

Thanks @coreygun. Had a few people tell me different things. Good to know. Will put both in title to reflect that.
Well it's definitely the closed system. The open system also had an 'O' engraved below the word Hope on the side of the caliper, and the levers didn't have dials. Open systems expand the reservoir on their own with the diaphragm, whereas a closed system has nowhere to escape and the rider needs to adjust the dial to account for heat expansion and pad wear.
