The TR4 arrives with 1600mm of hose, which is generally sufficient for most modern mountain bike frames. Installation involves mounting the one-piece caliper to your fork or frame tabs and routing the hose appropriately. Because this system uses a refined internal port design, ensure you follow current manufacturer guidelines when bleeding the brakes to take advantage of the new master cylinder port. Regularly inspect the `GR4` brake pads for wear, as these are specific to this caliper series. Keep the lever pivot lubricated and clean, and always use Hope-approved hydraulic fluid to ensure seal compatibility and longevity.
