Hi guys,

Not sure what to look for to order. I'm going back to my Chameleon from my Cotic Soul as I prefer the ride. Slight problem is I've lost the plastic clip in things that hold the hydraulic hose into the braze on's just wondering if anyone knew what they were called and if they can be got hold of?

Cheers,

Bought last week from the above seller and they fit the hose guides just fine.

Also known as C clips.

I would guess they're universal dude. Do they look different?

They're universal, are the Chameleon hose guides double width or an odd design ?

Use small cable ties instead!

I do, but the c clips look much nicer IMO

The brake hose threads through these and then they clip into the braze on. Like a sort of hollow tube thing.

Santa Cruz have come to the rescue and have found some that they are sending me. Amazing customer service considering how old the frame is!
