Thanks, seen those.

I mailed them about this. Available this week apparently.

On the subject of Hope release dates, anyone know what happened to the tech bars?

Thanks wrecker, did they say where from?

They said this week when I asked them via facebook too. Not had a look anywhere yet but I need to pop down to the LBS at some point in the next week or so so will order mine then 🙂

Promax one is OK but really fiddly with minute screws.

OP…just get a LEV, problem solved 😉

No mate. I can’t find any either.

Anyone found any yet?

I tweeted them the other day about it and they said they’re being sent out

Had one in my hand on friday, lovely bit of kit. Out by the end of the week I am told. Some cool things on the horizon with Hope!

Good, I think they could easily loose their dominance if they don’t keep up with growing trends and fashions.

Ooh, I want one.

Can’t get one for my frame size and I haven’t got a dropper post, but they’re so nice!

Just looked at the pic.

Am rather underwhelmed

Don’t buy one then.
Happy to help.

Do you have to unthread the remote cable to get it through, or can you open the eyelet thingy somehow?

A QR version would be good. For really steep stuff I drop the post by a further inch so a non-QR collar is a pain

Yep, that kinda stuff

For PP

DezB I can vouch for Bob, he does indeed ride stuff like that. I look on and wonder how gravity seems to leave him alone whilst I fall down the baby slopes.

Ordered, ta tootallpaul 😀

Dammit. No 29.8! 👿

http://www.tweekscycles.com/components/seat-clamps-bolts/hope-technology-dropper-seat-clamp – Tweeks are now listing them as available.

Looking at the pic, there’s a spherical insert the cable has to go through, suggests to me that the hose needs to be split in order to fit them, but someone said that wasn’t the case – how dos it work? Can the insert be split?

Looks like there is a cut out on the spherical bit to me. I’ll tell you later, mine is at home waiting for me.

The guide is removeable. It has to be so you can run it on either side.

The ball that the cable runs through is split so you can insert the cable in it

Hope Guide

Hopefully you can tell from the dogey pic but as above, the guide is removable and the ball is split:

Installed! bit tricky. A few words here:

Mine has been dispatched from Tweeks, just had the confirmation email through now.

Thanks for that link darrenspink, will use that when installing.
