Just a quick heads up to people wanting to get coloured M4's, V2's etc. I am in Hong Kong at the moment and you can buy them in Blue and Red off the shelf here. Quite why Hope dont sell them in these colours in the UK is beyond me.

Genuine question...
They're not knock-offs are they?0 -
Are Hope brakes (calipers and levers) in colours hard to find then? I didn't realise that. I knew they were a bit special in their funky colours, but I just assumed that Hope produced equal numbers of each colours...??

Hope never do coloured brakes in the Tech range unless they're special editions, like the current 'hint of green'0 -

Not sure, i never looked at the price as I have the brakes i want in my Formulas and tbh i am not a fan of hope brakes.
I saved £30 on a pair of easton Haven Carbon bars though0 -
