The EVO Brake Range

Share

At Hope Technology, we’re renowned for making components that last. After four years. Our test-winning brake, The Tech 4, was due for an update—not a reinvention, but a refinement.  
 
Introducing the EVO: A step up in braking performance. With updates to both the master cylinder and calipers, EVO delivers improved control, power, and serviceability across cross-country, trail, and gravity disciplines. You’ll notice familiar names from our existing lineup—a deliberate move to make choosing the right brake easier than ever. 

The Options: 

EVO GR4 – 4 Piston Gravity Brake 
Maximum power, zero compromise. Engineered for gravity and E bike use, the one-piece GR4 caliper features a stiffer one-piece body, larger pistons (6% more power vs Tech 4 V4), and a slimmer profile for better frame compatibility. They are Deliberately not compatible for vented rotors, to maximize caliper stiffness and performance. 
 
EVO TR4 – 4 Piston Trail Brake 
Trail-proven power with balanced modulation. The one-piece TR4 caliper with larger pistons and shared GR4 pads delivers a 6.5% increase in braking ratio over the previous E4 system—ideal for trail and all-mountain use. 

EVO X2 – 2 Piston XC Brake 
Lightweight, smooth, and precise. The EVO X2 pairs the new EVO master cylinder with the X2 caliper for riders who prioritise lever feel and control over sheer power—ideal for cross-country and lighter duty use.
