Anyone had problems with Hope floating rotors coming loose from the aluminium spider?? Noticed some slackness when front brake applied and rocked bike forward, ralised eventually that the rotor was loose. Can you get them retightened by Hope or are they just for the bin?? Any help valued before it get a new one.

Thanks

If you're sure its not the bolts or any other areas then send them an email. With this sort of situation and their brilliant customer service you could get a decent amount of help from Hope.

Oh no, I've just splashed out on one of these! That said, I only use my bike 3 times a year.

Are they 160mm by any chance? Apparently it's not usually a problem with the bigger ones...

I've had two with loose rivets now. Hope said it's wear and tear, although I didn't try sending them back because I wasn't the original owner. Got Airotors now which are ace.

I had a 160mm lightweight one that went like that. Didn't trust it so replaced it with an A2Z.
