RobinJI Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 Does anyone know when the earliest I'm going to be able to get hold of a hope pro II trials hub. Its my birthday halfway through june and I don't know whether theres any chance of me getting hold of one by then. I know CRC say they will have them in stock in 6 weeks but if its at all possible to get hold of one before then I will be really happy!

matthewholdsworth Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 itll be out when its ready, keep your eye on the sites, but hope wont release it until they are sure they arent going to get the whole lot back because theyve broken. so far as i know it is still being tested. once the test hubs are perfect the production ones will be in the shops pretty sharpish. itll be worth waiting for trust me, just get money for your birthday, stick it in a bank account and gain some pennies in the mean time :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Drewery Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 I have been without a rear hub for a while now due to wrecking my rear mono (for the fourth time) and my local bike shop heard news of the new hub, so they rung hope and they told us that the hub would be out soon and so I have pre-ordered a rear red in 36h, but i have no idea when it will get here. Judging by what you guys have said, im not going to be riding for a long time... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewholdsworth Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 how do i sign up for "testing" one of these? (Y) ← highly unlikely theyll let you, they are very selective and it helps living in barnoldswick! all the hubs are with sponsored riders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Campbell Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 Just backing up what trialnoir said, I phoned Hope earlier due to breaking my XC hub recently after 5 years with no problems (very happy with hope (Y)) They said they had a problem after a lot of testing they had to take something to do with engagement back to the early proto stage which will put back release till mid - late summer. Bit of a shame but its got to be right, so fair enough. I ordered another XC in the mean time to keep me going. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
