According to the product specialist
Pros
The Hope Tech 4 mtb brakes are 30% more powerful than its predecessor, the Hope Tech 3 MTB brakes. |
Suitable for trail and enduro use depending on rider weight + bike, see last product image. |
The shape of the brake lever has been further improved to maximize comfort and control. |
The position of the brake levers is manually adjustable according to personal preference, with a maximum range of 30°. |
Dual pistons for maximum braking power, perfect modulation on technical trails and descents. |
These brakes have excellent modulation and stopping power. |
The caliper has a double piston, making it extra powerful. |
The range of the brake lever is adjustable. |
These brakes provide good braking power in all conditions. |
The double pistons further increase braking power. |
Due to the 4 pistons in each caliper, the braking power of these brakes is very high. |
Shimano's Servo Wave technology ensures that these brakes are extra easy to dose. |
These brakes are delivered as J-kit. This means you can install them in a frame with internal cable routing without venting. |
Cons
The E4 mtb brakes have too much braking power for cross country use. The Hope X2 brakes would serve better. |
These brakes fall just short for downhill use, the Hope Tech 4 V4 brakes go the last mile. |
The brakes are not compatible with I-Spec II or I-Spec EV shift levers. |
These brakes are heavier than the XT single piston brakes. |
These brakes are heavier than higher-end brakes. |
