There's no need to thread the brake pipe down the forks ,if thats what you mean.Take off the horn stem and thread it down the headset next to the alloy wiring clamp and down thru the mudguard gasket to the slave cylinder. Fit the pipe nut to the hose, I presume it's stainless braided?,then spread the braiding out and push the olive onto the inner nylon pipe.I now trim the excess braiding off ,leaving some slightly covering the olive,push the banjo union into the olive and thread the nut up.It's just a case then of tightening fully and ending up with no twists.
