Looking for HOPE early 90s disc brake adapter or drawings

[Martinez98]

Looking for early HOPE front disc adapter to fit HOPE Mini brakes (c.2002) as pics + HOPE Pro 2 Hubs to non-disc Sunn Obsys Carbon fork; or drawings of prototype part so could get fabricated.

Any help/advice/offers be grateful.

Cheers

Re:

I have a PACE mount but there is no mount that will allow you to fit any of the IS calipers

Hope used the #1 Caliper as the basis for all their pre IS mounts

I have a front wheel that would fit with the mount and the #1 Caliper which may fit the Obsys forks....

Hi MacRetro,

Thanks for response.

My bad. Images may have misled. The disc & caliper fitments on my Hope Mini’s (circa 2002) are IS.

The front end components I’m trying to fit are:

-2008 Hope Pro 2 hub, 6 hole IS disc fitment
-2002 Hope Mini brake set, caliper IS fitment
-1998 Sunn Obsys Carbon suspension fork, non-disc, bot stanchion diam 28.6mm

Pics of above PMd.

Am I going to be able to make this work (I like the black CNC look) or am I best forgetting it & slamming on my SIDS??

Would be interested in your PACE mount if can be adapted to work.



Cheers

Re:

I'm not sure you'll be able to get all those parts to fit together. If the fork had a disc mount as standard then it's be relatively simple.
So you need an adapter to allow the 2002 Hope mini caliper to be mounted to the sun obyss fork leg such that its correctly spaced and in line with the disc rotor.

If there's no suitable universal adapter on ebay, then it might be easier to get a custom mount made.

Re:

International standard (IS) was agreed upon to stop the issues of multiple companies making brakes and requiring fork manufacturers to make multiple forks to accept them

There are no added mounts that will make this work for the 2002 Hope mini, I would look for a later SID / Judy etc which has the correct fitment or get friendly with your dentist....

Thanks for info.

Looks like I’ll be fitting the black ‘04 SIDS which have simple 51mm IS mount.

Shame, was hoping to combine Sunn frame & fork.
