Celebrating two decades since the introduction of the original Mono 6Ti, Hope Tech has unveiled the EVO V6Ti Mono Edition\u2014a modern reimagining of their iconic six-piston brake system. This limited-edition release not only pays homage to its predecessor but also incorporates advanced engineering to meet the demands of contemporary mountain biking.<\/p>\n
Design and Engineering<\/strong><\/p>\n The EVO V6Ti Mono Edition features a single-piece CNC-machined caliper, meticulously crafted to achieve an optimal stiffness-to-weight ratio. This design maximizes surface area for superior heat dissipation, a critical factor for maintaining consistent braking performance during intense descents. Inside the caliper, six titanium pistons are employed, each coated with Ti-Nitride to reduce friction and enhance durability. The cross-drilled piston design further improves cooling, ensuring the system remains efficient under prolonged use. (hopetechhb.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n Mounting and Compatibility<\/strong><\/p>\n Adopting a radial-mount design, the EVO V6Ti Mono Edition eliminates the dimensional constraints associated with traditional post-mount systems. This approach allows for a larger caliper body, increased piston surface area, and enhanced pad contact, collectively contributing to superior braking power. However, this design necessitates the use of dedicated brake mounts and requires a disc diameter that is 20mm larger than standard setups. Specifically, the system is compatible with post-mount forks and frames (PM180, PM200, PM203) fitted with 200mm or 220mm rotors. Additionally, the EVO V6Ti Mono Edition is exclusively compatible with 2.3mm and 3.3mm (vented) brake discs. (cyclingindustry.news<\/a>)<\/p>\n T-Slot Vented Rotors<\/strong><\/p>\n To complement the caliper, Hope has developed the T-Slot Vented Rotor, designed specifically for the EVO V6Ti system. These rotors feature a three-layer brake track that creates a gap between the external braking surfaces, facilitating improved heat dissipation. The vented outer rotor is replaceable, allowing for cost-effective maintenance. Internal cooling fins between the two friction surfaces induce airflow, significantly reducing heat buildup during extended braking periods. The rotors are available in 200mm, 203mm, and 220mm sizes, all with a six-bolt mounting interface. (bikebiz.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n Mono Edition: Celebrating 20 Years<\/strong><\/p>\n In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the original Mono 6Ti, Hope is releasing a special Mono Edition of the EVO V6Ti. Limited to 1,000 individually numbered sets, each featuring a distinctive black and gold color scheme inspired by the original design, this edition is a true collector’s item.
