early Hope disc

[Mr T]

Has anyone got one of these disc rotors in good condition they would like to sell? It is an early Hope disc.
This one has a crack in it at the top in the picture.
I didn't really want to buy a new caliper hub and disc and rebuild the wheel if I can just replace the rotor.

Failing finding a replacement could the rotor not be seperated from the centre section(it appears to be bolted in place) and a new one be lazer cut by an engineering firm?
Or even by Hope themselves perhaps.

you might be able to find what is required on e-bay e.g.

Another possibility is that you could have a different type of disc machined to accept the Hope mountings. Some current discs even have a five bolt spider mounting that looks vaguely similar

As R2 says have you tried Hope themselves?

We no longer service Sport and Pro model brakes (including XC4) and Mono 6 Ti brakes (Ti pistons only). Some spares are still available for these brakes, so please check with your local dealer or preferred supplier before pulling them in bits yourself! We do have a lot of spares for almost everything we've ever done, but at some point we just have to say no!

Since those calipers won't give you much adjustment, my advice would be to stay within the same rotor to avoid disappointment after a lot of work makes a rotor that is offset to the caliper.
Have a look on Retrobike uk forum, I'm sure you can find one at some point.

Being unhelpful, I’d be surprised if a current Hope disc wouldn’t work with the caliper?
