stupot Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 hi does anyone have a picture of a hope stem in green or know of a website with one on cause i want to know if they are the same green as my king headset? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Hope no longer make green or purple products, there wasn't a market for them. So any chance of getting one is out of the window, unless you get a silver one and contact fatmike and ask where he got his stuff anodised.

tom tom Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 yeah i was really pissed off for that, i wanted a green bore cap and a green xc hub on the front of my python, maybe you should drop a word to hope and let them know about this so that they can start anodising green parts again tom tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 If you are after green hope parts just drop them and email and they will more than likely beable to help you out.I've dealt with hope a few times now and havent come across such a polite and helpfull company.Bucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 They won't do it, I work in a shop and we are a good dealer of hope, and they wouldn't even do it for us. So getting something green from hope isn't gonna happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shovel Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 why would you want a green stem! don't mean to offend you or anything but a black one would look soo much better against your headset and you'll prob just regret getting a green one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 On the mention of hopes do you think they would ever do mod hubs, 'cause at the same price for thier stock hubs they would be the shizzle! Or are the new hubs ok for mods? Or could you fit a singlespeed casette on it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janson Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 i heard that the hope stems slip on the steerers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stupot Posted February 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 oh no has anyone else heard this before i buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 yep...I had one, it slipped lots when I first got it, but not so much leter on.I also snapped a bolt trying to tighten it enough not to slip.good stems though, if you get one it might be worth just roughening up the steerer with a grinder or somthing to aid grip.

TheMunn Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 I used to have a hope stem, nothing bad to say about it really, it didn't slip at all and this is the first I have heard of them slipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Slipping? Had mine ages now, and not slipped at all. Love it to bits too.I wouldn't get green though, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
