First up - set of Hope Open 2 brakes with Pro levers (these seem to be rarer than the Closed 2 for some reason - not that that means they're better!)

I bought these before Xmas for my Global. I bled them and used them for about 3/4 rides, but have now bought some M4s, so selling them on.

No.3 calipers front and rear - so IS fittings for 160/180. They will come with Tektro rotors that are copies of the Hope O2/C2 rotors as far as I can tell - anyway they work fine.
The hoses are braided and are 130cm rear & 90cm front.
Pads are 3/4 rides old.

They are in good condition - a few scrapes & scratches. The plastic coating on the braided hoses isn't perfect, but no leaks or kinks.

After I bled them they were fine to use, but a bit squishy - so defo another bleed needed.
The pistons are also a bit sticky, so I would say they need the caliper o-rings replacing (kits are £3ish)
Also got a spare set of pads that I'll include.

Looking for £60 posted :D













No picture of the 160 rotor as it's on a wheel in the shed - but it's in the same condition.

2nd up - a NOS Zoom black Zoom quill stem.
1 1/8" (25.4mm) with a standard clamp. 125mm reach & 10 degrees. Never fitted - still has the plastic cover on the quill and its bung (the bit that always got lost on these!)

3rd up - a black steel stem (very similar in shape to an Alpinestars one I had).
Front brake cable stop built in.
1 1/4" (28.6mm) with an odd sized clamp - 26.2mm. I think this is the clamp size for Cinelli bars - not sure why these would be on an MTB though? Maybe the stem came off a tourer.....anyway I have shimmed these in the past and they were fine.

Open to offers, but don't want to give stuff away :wink:

Would like to make my money back on the brakes if possible........they cost £38 from ebay (inc. postage), rotors £5 from ebay, and pads £5.25 per pair from Disco Brakes.
 
Or brakes on their own £45 posted - add spare set of pads for £4 extra.

Rotors £5 each posted.
 
got 30 burning a hole in my pocket... fancy that for the brakes?

It'll get my spare (yes.. spare) atx1 dh back on the trails for the girly to use
