unsure about em as never got on with hope before in the alps..
anyone used em out there?
cheers.
Yep. Did passporte back when it was called the freeraid on a 4.5" travel bike with v brakes. The first hope mini discs I bought were less powerful than the LX parallelogram Vs they replaced.

V brakes? In the alps? Why on earth would you?
I saw one person riding with v brakes in the alps, riding passporte. I distinctly remember it as I watched her disappear off the top of a berm, and off a massive drop, due to the inability to stop. Then watched the helicopter come and ferry her off to hospital

I've been ambulanced off morzine and had surgery to pin my knee. I came off a disc braked 150mm bike at the time. What's your point, caller?
Um guys, he's not talking about v-brakes. 😆
I used Tech V2s for guiding all last season (Sainte Foy, Les Arcs, La Thuile, Pila, etc). Great brakes, best I've ever had. No issues whatsoever.
Think I gave them a mid-season bleed and that was the only tinkering required on them.
