its great to see a British company of up there making top notch bits. You have spent serious cash investing in production machines and methods to bring us state of the art engineered goodies. Love it. A few hope parts on my shopping list for sure. Keep it up Hope.
I'm not a mountain biker, but I am a machinist. I have to say I'm a fan of the company now. I was watching the video on your chain rings, and I think I could reduce the cycle time dramatically with some tooling investment. Love the lang base units, and miteebite clamps paired with the brother machine.
Got a set of pro2 evo's for my bike on Friday and was straight out at Gisburn on Saturday. cracking set of hubs and wheels. Made in lancashire. Brilliant video. watched it dozens of times. :-)
Yep, another shout out to Hope. Excellent products & even though spares are rarely needed, they're actually available at a reasonable cost for a long time. Legendary after sales service. I reckon you'll sell almost anything you decide to produce!
I own and run a 3million pound turnover CNC engineering factory, supplying to the F1 boys and I have to say your shop is awsome! Nice set up, and great use of automation. (If you ever have backlog in work let me know, would love to help make the parts I have on my Sworks).. I bought the XC race brake set last year.. blows XTR straight out of the park!!! :).. oh and great video keep up the good work. cheers
i'd imagine this would only be a problem if their drive exceeds their skill set. one component at a time and i would happily put my money on them being able to eventually build a bike successfully that maintains their level of detail and quality. but there is of course a good argument for sticking with what you do best. Hope is an outstanding example of the kind of industry the UK is still capable of. We need more companies like this....
Fantastically Talented People ♥:HOPE:♥ ! My dad and me had a factory tour last May thanks to Alan Wetherill. All our bikes are nicely furnished with Hope:♥ components even my mum has evo hub's on her mtb! Great company ~ Hope♥ are the best! ~ Made in Britain!
Everything on my 2011 rockhopper that can be hope is/will be hope, I'm fitting a tech EVO m4 rear brake tomorrow, an a tech EVO v2 front when I next get paid. :D
bought the R4+ and R8+ for winter riding - what a light, worth every penny. got the carbon bars and pro 4s on my intense carbon. just wish i could buy direct as i am after some clothing
but I live in India. and in India not selling the hope parts! so how can buy Hope parts, no any shopping website and no shopping app so this is main problem
I hope they don't make a complete bike, they'd risk diluting their brand name in an even more competitive market. They're one of the leaders in their field, i think they should continue and expand on that.
If you need some new workers please call me! Got a really nice cube and corrected it with some very nice pedals ( i hope)! I wouldnt deliver it by backflip or anything ele.... but i would be faster than DHL ^^
