Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Hope HB160 27.5 Mountain Bike 2018 Orange

Season:2018

Brand:Hope

Code:HB160-C

The Hope HB160 has been a long time dream for Hope co-founders Ian Weatherill and the late Simon Sharpand and after years of rumours & speculation, the Hope HB160 has finally arrived!

Hope HB160 - Exclusive to 11 UK Dealers

We're proud at Leisure Lakes Bikes to be 2 of only 11 UK dealers chosen to stock the Hope HB160 mountain bike, with one HB160 now available in both our Cheltenham and Daventry stores. Since the Hope HB160 is hand build in Barnoldswick, mass production is not a possibility, making this bike a very limited - and even more exciting if you get your hands on one!

Limited Availability + Choose your Colour

Because of the limited supply & extensive manufacturing process, the HB160 is limited to one bike, per stockist, per month – which means if you’re after a particular size & colour finishing kit you’ll need to get into contact with either Leisure Lakes Bikes Daventry or Leisure Lakes Bikes Cheltenham to make sure they can order in the exact bike you want!

Hope HB160 Mountain Bike

Hope saw the opportunity to combine the needs of the frame and component designer into one project, allowing them to uncompromisingly create their vision of the perfect bike.

Hope Tech - UK Carbon Production

There's a wealth of knowledge around carbon fibre in the UK, with the majority of the current F1 teams being based here as well as a thriving aerospace industry. This gives Hope access to some of the worlds most talented carbon fibre engineers. The challenge was taking their skill at producing batches of two components, and scaling it up to production quantites.

Since Hope's existing products are manufactured using the processes most companies only use to produce their first prototypes ie CNC machined rather than cast or precision forged, it's not been an unusual experience for Hope. Mould production has been one of the easiest processes since these are made on CNC machines and they already have a few of these.

Cutting and laying up the carbon sheet is quite a labour intensive process, but keeping production on site in Barnoldswick gives Hope total confidence in the quality of parts produced.

In the past there have been reservations internally about the safety of manufacturing in carbon fibre and although carbon fibre production is a relatively new process to Hope, with the correct controls & working practices in place, it can be made an extremely safe process. Also by manufacturing in their own factory in the UK, Hope abide to strict health and safety regulations, ensuring a safe working environment for their staff.
