Hi, anyone know what size dia brake hose i need for an old set of Hope Mini's. I have measured mine with a tape measure and it looks like 6mm, but can only find 5mm for sale. Does 6mm exist or is it my measuring.
Cheers
Alex

No, it is 6mm. If you can't find any, you'll need to go for new 5mm fittings too - expensive.

Thanks Boxelder, does anyone know if i would get away with 5mm hose and a 5mm olive, ie not buying a full kit.

Can't see it working like that sorry , but have not tried
Don't think the shroud would compress the olive.
Might be worth seeing how much a braided kit is
