Hope caliper is orange and has all the pots, what else do you need to know?! I didn't know it existed until yesterday, now its the glorious centrepiece of this upgrade
I couldn't see the R7020 levers on Merlin - Germans have them as a set though. They are the new lower profile ones, may as well go sleek.
I'm still open to putting an XT derailluer on, but I thought it had to be 11 spd to match the shifters. If I put a 10spd on an 11spd cassette, where do I lose out? At the smallest end? And will there be 11 clicks for 10 changes? And do I need to get the Tanpan to increase cable pull?
The Hope calipers might not be mineral oil compatible so check. You might also need an aftermarket brakeline with universal fittings like Uberbike.
Shimano 11 speed road and mtb have different cable pull for the rd. But 11 speed road and 10 speed mtb have the same cable pull. So you can use the 10 speed XT rd (with goatlink) with an 11 speed 11-46 mtb cassette on a 10 speed hub. This setup does require an inline barrel adjuster, but they are cheap and work fine. Confused yet?
You're essentially paying double for the r7020. Merlin has the rs685 for $243 https://www.merlincycles.com/shiman...is-br-rs785-disc-brakes-post-mount-75654.html They have the rs785 di2 for $342.

Can get the Hope in Shimano specific (mineral oil), and in postmount / flatmount versions.
I still need to get my head around the XT 10 spd - even though its only specc'd up to 36t, it can go further with the goatlink?
The levers from the Germans are a set, including hoses. Its ~$100 more expensive when you add in the Hope calipers, over the rs685 set from Merlin (single ones look sold out - so its $532) (by my quick reckoning)
I'll check more tonight though

Incorrect; you're getting mixed up with SRAM. Shimano road 10-sp, MTB 10-sp, road 11-sp. and MTB 11-sp. all use different pull ratios. 1.7:1 for road 10 & below, with the notable exception of 4700-series Tiagra, which shares its architecture with road 11-sp, + 9-sp & below MTB, road 11-sp + 4700 Tiagra use a 1.4:1 ratio, MTB 10-sp. is 1.2:1, while MTB 11-sp. is 1.1:1.Shimano 11 speed road and mtb have different cable pull for the rd.

But by a nifty coincidence Shimano 11 speed road works perfectly with 10 speed mtb on an 11 speed cassette. So same same, but different.Incorrect; you're getting mixed up with SRAM.

SRAM on the other hand use 1.3:1 for all road + 10-sp. MTB, and 1.1:1 for MTB 11, 9 & 8-sp.
Nice, my Hope ones are delayed (took a chance on the 2-7 days stock level and lost). Not getting parts for a few weeks now...All this roadie upgrading is a bad influence. Have ordered a pair of the Deore 4 pots, will see how they play with Ultegra brifters![]()
