How to reroute and shorten the hose without bleeding the brake
Before you start turn the master vertically upwards
Attention: If possible, FIRST cut the hose about 150mm from the master.
Then use an 8mm open spanner and remove first the sleeve nut and then the hose.
To avoid spillage hold the hose!
Attention: if the hose is routed through the frame, take care to shorten it AFTER routing through the frame.
In case of routing the hose through the frame, please order the hose with an additional length of 300mm.
If possible use a plug to close the hose during the routing process.
Take the hose after routing through the frame and check for correct length before shortening it.
Tighten the sleeve nut with the correct torque of 4Nm while HOLDING the hose.
