OK all,
On a bit of a tidy up on the SB6
Brake reservoir hoses and clips are all looking a bit old and tired. So want to replace them.
On my harris I have used stainless braided hose and anodized hose end finishers, but on the SB6 the hose length is only short. So not enough room for the end finishers etc. If I just use stainless braided hose it will fray like hell and look a bit pants.

So what hose and hose clips do you all use. And where are you getting them, had a quick scoot on tinternet and can only find jubalee type clips.

Cheers in advance.

You can get a Brembo kit, it's a length of hose and comes with two spring clips ... Like this

I take it no one knowswhere I can get stainless versions of the Brembo clips.
Zink plated or Black dont exactly get me hot.

Thanks for the info..

Unfortunately, stainless isn't as springy as some other metals.
Use black, blends in better Laughing
