Just bought a brand new set of Magura MTS Brakes but unfortunately the hoses are too short, besides new hoses what other parts do I need when lengthening the hoses, any help appreciated, thanks

If you get a hose kit all the parts are included.

You'll also need a bleed kit. Basically 2 syringes plus some hardware and fluid.

I did a pair a week or so back was very quick and easy.

Just make sure you take the pads Out and be prepared for fluid to run out the hose when you take it off.

One thing I swapped the front and rear so I only need one new house for the rear - I just shortened the x rear hose to use at the front.

The hose came from Wiggle and is original Magura but I think superstar do their own version too.

Bleed kit I've had for a while and there's various sources for those.
