The Hope Tech 4 TR4 is a premium four-piston hydraulic disc brake engineered for trail and all-mountain riders who prioritize consistent power and nuanced feedback. It is an excellent choice for enthusiasts seeking a firm, mechanical lever feel with precise control, though the manual-intensive installation and bleeding process may challenge riders who prefer plug-and-play simplicity. Featuring a one-piece caliper design and an updated master cylinder, this brake provides a 6.5% increase in braking ratio compared to previous models, ensuring reliable performance across demanding terrain.

No, the Hope Tech 4 TR4 is typically sold as a brake assembly; rotors and mounting adapters must be purchased separately based on your frame and wheel setup.
The TR4 uses specific GR4 pads designed for the larger four-piston arrangement to achieve the improved braking ratio.
The new cam decreases the free lever stroke, providing a more immediate engagement point while maintaining excellent modulation.
It is recommended to bleed them at least once per season or whenever the lever feel becomes noticeably spongy or inconsistent.
Yes, the Tech 4 TR4 features tool-free reach and bite point adjustments that can be safely manipulated while riding.
Air is likely trapped in the system; perform a full bleed using the master cylinder port to ensure all internal air pockets are purged.
Ensure the caliper is correctly aligned and the pistons are fully retracted using a piston press tool before inserting new pads.
Check the main pivot for debris and ensure the sliding guide bush is clean and lightly lubricated.
Installation of the Hope Tech 4 TR4 requires standard hydraulic brake tools, including a bleed kit and compatible mineral oil or DOT fluid depending on your specific system specifications. Because the caliper is a one-piece CNC unit, ensure the mounting bolts are torqued to manufacturer specifications to avoid frame or adapter damage.
