HOPE Brake Caliper RX4+SL Flat Mount rear FM for Sram | DOT
For gravel bikes and road bikes, HOPE has the right brake solution in its program. The proven English art of milling, coupled with technical understanding, led to the HOPE RX4+SL brake caliper. The current RX4+SL oil version is slimmer than the RX4+ WITHOUT SL. This enables greater frame compatibility. The bleed nipple of the 2-piston version is also included in the redesign, making bleeding easier and cleaner.
According to HOPE, the RX4+SL brake caliper in monobloc design is perfectly machined from a solid piece and not only improves performance compared to two-piece solutions, but also prevents unwanted rubbing or "rubbing" with the matching pads and discs while simultaneously improving the pressure point. Another advantage is the four-piston solution, with two smaller and two larger slave pistons. The two smaller ones lead to quick application of the brake pad, while the two larger ones maximize the braking force. This allows you to finely regulate the braking force even on difficult surfaces.
The HOPE RX4+SL brake caliper fits all current hydraulic Sram road bike brake levers, the replacement is very easy, as you only have to replace your existing brake caliper with the HOPE RX4+SL brake caliper. This means you can upgrade all Sram road bike groupsets to the HOPE RX4+SL brake caliper.
