Will an old standard hose flex enough to decrease performance compared to a new one? Is it worth changing hoses on some old hope brakes?

No it isn't worth changing

How old is old? The lifespan of pushiron brakes isn't enough for it to become relevant often.

Should be alright then really. Would depend a bit on how much use they've had though.
