by a competent cycle mechanic using the correct tools. Incorrect installation

The video logo indicates you can find some useful tips on the website
. This brake system has been designed to be used only on two-wheel vehicles
with human propulsion. Any other application is not advisable and could result
in the failure of this product.
. Your brake system will generate heat during braking. Never touch either the
disc or caliper after long braking period as this could cause severe burns.
. Before each ride always check the brake for proper function, the brake pad for
wear and that there is no system damage resulting in fluid leaks.
. It’s common sense to also check that your wheel’s quick release systems are
securely installed and tightened.
. Your braking performance will improve in almost all conditions. Please take
time to become familiar with your new brake. Always ride within your own
ability.
. Brake pad contaminated with brake fluid, chain lubricant or unsuitable bike
cleaner will need replacing because the overall brake performance will be
greatly diminished.
. If you have any doubts or questions please contact your dealer or the appropri-
ate distributor for your country.
.
If you decide to ignore these important safety warnings and instructions, you
are doing so at your own risk and Hope Technology cannot be held responsible
for any consequences resulting of the misuse of the brake system.

Congratulations, you have just acquired the Trial Zone hydraulic disc brake system.
Please note that this brake system has been specially designed for Trial use only.
The Trial Zone master cylinder will deliver the right brake pressure to the caliper
whilst keeping its solid and positive feel. It features a split clamp for easy fitting,
integrated reservoir for bleeding and adjustable lever reach.
With its two oversize pistons, the one piece Trial Zone caliper will offer both power
and stiffness for the most efficient clamping of the disc.
The Trial Zone brake is supplied with our standard custom black hose in order to
associate high performance with the lowest weight.
Rotors are only available in stainless steel in several diameters. Please not that this
brake isn’t compatible with any floating disc, use the specific rotors designed for the
Trial Zone brake.
Again bear in mind that this brake system is only designed for Trial bikes (brake
on, brake off at low speed) any other use could result in brake failure.
1. Brake system, fully bled
2. M6 x 18mm caliper bolts
