I bought some Hopes 4 V4 I've bleeded them like 50 times, but sometimes the lever still comes to the bar...
Yes i'm using the Hope bleed kit. i've mounted the brake on a empty handlebar on my bikestand. i rotated the caliper and the lever in every direction, and pumped the lever. then i left the reservoir on the brake, put a zip tie on the lever and left it so for 24h have done the same procedure as i...

First, I am honestly asking: WHY the hell do we NEED such fine engagement on our hubs? This is one the most first-world-issues of mountainbiking: to have ”fst engaging hubs”! Guys, we could ride in the past with the less fast engaging ones and it was no problem, really. I mean, honestly, are we getting to a point where we dare saying a Chris King hub is not fast engaging enough, because, wait...
