Hope Floating Disc Rotor: 160mm Blue

Description

• Enhanced heat dissipation with a wider braking surface designed for improved stopping power and consistent performance under demanding riding conditions.
• Constructed from laser-cut stainless steel for superior durability, corrosion resistance, and precise braking response, ensuring longevity and reliability.
• Features a two-piece floating rotor design that allows for greater thermal expansion and reduces warping, maintaining optimal brake performance over time.
• Compatible with all pad compounds, making this 160mm Hope floating disc ideal for a variety of mountain biking, XC, and trail riding setups with a standard 6-bolt IS mount.
• Stylish and functional blue anodized finish adds a sleek look to your bike while the machined radius edges enhance aerodynamics and reduce noise during braking.

On long descents dropping thousands of vertical feet your brakes take a beating. In these conditions you quickly learn that not all rotors are created equal. Hope claims the Floating Disc Rotor resists warping even under severe heat from sustained braking. This is achieved using a floating design consisting of a CNC-machined aluminum carrier riveted to a laser-cut stainless steel outer rotor. When the outer rotor is subjected to serious heat it expands. By allowing it to float separately from the center carrier the rotor can expand and shrink at will without stressing the carrier, preventing permanent deformation. The rotors come in five anodized color options, making them the perfect complement to your Hope brakes. Hope says they can be used with other brake brands, but you must check the clearance with your caliper once everything is installed, as the rivets sit about 1mm above the braking surface and you don't want them contacting your brake pads. Depending on your frame and fork mounting style as well as your desired rotor size, you may need a Hope disc brake adapter to correctly space your caliper.
