Just changed my Disc brake to use a different brake leaver as the other one is knacked and seen better days
trouble is its requiring a few more inch of hose due to the location reservoir compared to the old one--
now i seem to be a few inch short ( the full cable) is there any extension bit you can buy or is it a new longer hose!!

yeah sorry, was on my phone and couldnt do a link thing
Russ is very helpful, one of the good guys in life
I have spent a lot of money with him in the past, every time I got exactly what I wanted, will be getting all the colour coded lines for my scooter build from him also

the colours are good, I have had the same colours but made long time apart, and the colours were identical, this is just another of them little things that would annoy the hell out of me otherwise LOL. end fittings are stainless swaged on, so no corrosion issues to worry about, also for anyone doing MSVA etc, obviously this is better as they arent alloy
