Hope RX4 caliper clearance

[JhnBssll]

Has anyone got any experience with these? My lbs is currently building up my new bike and they're worried about the distance between caliper and spokes, ie apparently there is none. I'm going to drop in tomorrow afternoon to see if they've solved it but any pointers would be useful before then. The bike is an Oltre xr3 disc with flat mount fitment, wheels are mavic cosmic pro carbon sl ust disc.

If it continues to be an issue I'll have to contact hope and ask them to re-anodise it after I mill the back off

Thanks in advance

No issues with the post mount version on some Condor carbon forks but the flat mounts wouldn't work with Lauf Grit forks.No issues with either on the frames (Light Blue Robinson and Ridley X-Trail).

I've ordered some spacers for am delivery tomorrow, hopefully they will sort the problem

No issues with the flat mount versions on a Kinesis Tripster AT. 4-5mm clearance each end with Hunt 4 Seasons Gravel wheels.

Post mounts don't work on Laufs either which Hope now know about.

Didn't need the spacers in the end, the LBS got it fitted with minimal fuss. I think they offered them up last thing before shutting up shop for the night and panicked when they saw the tiny clearances All up and running and properly bled now
