Hi all,

I have just bought a set of Hope Tech V2's of someone on the forum and was just wondering what brackets I am going to need to fit them.

I have a Commencal Furious '09 [img] [/img]

So the rear is a post mount which goes nicely with the V2 as it is also post mount. From what I have read it is spec'd with a 185mm on the back so I will need this [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13740 ][b]Hope Rear Post to Post 203mm[/b][/url]

Up front I have 2 set of forks - a set of Maz 2011 66RC's which have post mount and also a set of '06 Maz 888 RC's which (annoyingly) are IS mount.

From what I have read the front V2 is set up as a 203mm which means for the 66RC's I would need this [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13729 ][b]Hope Front Post to Post 203mm[/b][/url]. But do these not add on 20mm??

For the 888's I would need this [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13734 ][b]Hope Front IS to Post 203mm[/b][/url].

Does that all sound about right? Just don't want to buy and then have to re-buy return. I had to do that when I was building the HT!!

Thanks,

Tim

You do not need any mount hardware for the v2 on the 66rc (i have 2008 66rc3 with V2 and the post to post mount came with the brake and is now sitting in a draw) and I believe that would be the same for the frame no mount needed as the frame is set up for 203 brakes. With the 888 you will need IS to post 203 which you can get off crc for about £7.
