Will these components work together using the shifter mount clamp? I cant for the life of me work out how?
Unfortunately not without the iSpec adaptor, see here:
FWIW I found that running the ISPEC adapters and Hope's matchmaker clamps either put the brake levers too close (for single finger braking) or the shifters too far away.. [slight rant] I wish Hope would make a shorter lever for the Tech Evo master cylinder - it could be 12mm shorter without issue IMO [End of slight rant]
I'm sure most shifters can be mounted with a little fettling...I'm running 10yr old LXs on my Techs with XT matchmakers...
You absolutely have to have Ispec mounts ๐
FWIW it's not Hope's finest - the shifters and the cylinders must be bulkier because the angle differential between the brakes and the shifters is quite marked. Lever comfy shifters too angled upwards. After a while you get used to it and it is neater but unless you're pushed for space I'd consider passing.
