Hope MTB Floating Centre-Lock Disc Brake Rotor

Engineered for trail riders tackling steep descents or all-mountain enthusiasts pushing limits, this disc brake rotor combines cutting-edge materials science with innovative design to deliver unmatched performance under pressure. Built to withstand relentless use on technical terrain or aggressive downhill runs, its two-component structure ensures reliability even during prolonged braking sessions where heat buildup is critical.

Dynamic Thermal Management: Unlike traditional solid-disc designs, Hope’s floating architecture lets the 410-grade stainless steel braking surface move independently from its CNC-machined aluminum hub base—a true 1° freedom float system that prevents warping during high-intensity rides. This separation allows heat dissipation through both components while maintaining consistent stopping power on scorching descents or extended enduro stages.

Lightweight Stiffness Without Compromise: The aluminum center is precision-machined via CNC technology for rigidity comparable to thicker fixed rotors but at half their weight penalty. Acting as an active heat sink, it draws warmth away from the braking zone faster than conventional setups, reducing fade risks on repetitive downhill runs or cross-country marathons where every gram counts.

Durable Heat-Resistant Surface: Crafted from laser-cut stainless steel treated for optimal hardness, its 1.8mm profile (with 1.5mm minimum thickness) resists oxidation and deformation better than standard steel rotors—ideal for riders who demand longevity on rugged trails or competitive events where maintenance downtime isn’t an option.

When Every Millimeter Matters: Whether carving through loose gravel on weekend adventures or charging full-speed during XC races, this rotor’s low mass paired with its robust construction delivers responsive modulation control while minimizing unsprung weight on your rig’s wheels.
