- Page 15 I M P O R T A N T N O T E : SNIPER XC PRO REAR BRAKE ROUTING After assembly, it is important to ensure the brake line is positioned 38mm (1.5") away from the bottom surface of the downtube. This allows enough slack in the cable so they do not come under tension when the suspension compresses.
