Got a set of deore brakes. M596 from about 3 years ago- the ones with the new style lever but older calliper (with the hooked pads) I have managed to grind my way through the sidewall of the hoses and need to replace them. Any idea what to use? There seems to be a bit of variance with hoses, barbs and olives and no compatibility list that I can find online? Thanks

Ok finally got round to trying to sort this. I have ordered a bh90 hose but I am concerned it may come with a banjo end. Can I cut this off and fit an insert as normal?
