MTB holiday disaster saved by Hope

Imagine my horror after driving 1200km to the French alps(les ARCS) only to discover when unpacking my new Transition bike that i had left behind the 142x12 rear hub adaptors for my Hope rear wheel. Drew a blank for getting any adaptors after visiting all the bike shops in the area. Only one thing for it was to hire a bike at least that would get me biking on the trails. Then a chance encounter on the Funiculaire with a fellow Brit who told me Hope where in town. Got up nice and early and tracked down where the Hope guys where staying, and yes they had the correct adaptors for my wheel, how lucky was that. Many thanks to the Hope Crew who saved my Holiday, Best company on the planet !!!
