Hope Tech XCR Pro E4 MTB Brakes

Hope XCR Pro E4 Brake – Downcountry Power, XC & Trail Performance

Take on the climbs and dominate the descents with the all-new Hope XCR Pro E4 Brake—the ultimate choice for downcountry riders who demand grip, control, and lightweight performance. With a CNC-machined one-piece E4 caliper, carbon lever blade, titanium hardware, and Race compound pads, this brake system delivers the feel of a trail monster with the weight savings you expect for XC and long rides.

🔧 Key Features & Benefits

• E4 Caliper Design: Hybrid stainless steel four-piston layout with a phenolic insert to help manage heat, reduce weight, and deliver smooth, consistent braking.

• Carbon XCR Pro Lever: 10% more power vs. the Race Evo lever, lightweight carbon blade, titanium hardware, and an easy-to-use lever reach adjuster for a customized fit.

• CNC Machined One-Piece Caliper Body: Rigid aluminum billet construction for improved stiffness under load and reliable performance.

• Premium Pads: Racing compound (“Green Race”) pads included, offering excellent initial bite, reduced fade, and strong performance out of the box. 

• Lightweight System: Complete front brake system (lever, caliper, hose cut to size) is approximately 229 grams.

⚙️ Specs & Compatibility

• Mount Type: Post-mount caliper only.

• Rotor Compatibility: Fits standard trail/XC rotor sizes such as 140, 160, 180, 200 & 203 mm depending on adapter. 

• Pad Type: Green Race / racing compound; aluminum-backed for high-heat durability.

• Hose: Black non-braided hose included. Braided not available for this model. 

✅ Why The Hope XCR Pro E4 Is Stand-Out

If you've ever found powerful brakes to be jerky, hard to modulate, or too heavy, the XCR Pro E4 offers something rare: a light, crisp free stroke, a firm, well-defined bite point, and a smooth ramp-up in between. It gives the power you need on steep terrain without sacrificing rider confidence or fatigue on long climbs. Perfect for downcountry, mixed trail, and fast technical rides.
