Appreciate any advice on where to drill headset for hydraulic hose - what size hole etc.

Piccy's would be good.

Cheers all.

I don't usually drill a hole when I do this, I just file a groove in the top and bottom of the headset with a round file.

That looks tidy, but what diameter has that rod been whittled down to. Looks mighty thin?
