Rear brake hose : cut at the top link of the frame

Hello striders,

I replaced my rear hose on yesterday evening.
I was quite surprised because it was easier than I initialy thought.

Here is the kit I bought : decathlon.fr/kit-cables-gain … 89252.html

I read the different topics you mentionned above, and did a mix :

  • removed the cable
  • removed the rear part of the cut hose
  • introduced the new hose from the bottom of the tube, up to the top of the triangle.
    => Here was the main difficulty : I I had to use tweezers to grap the hose and get it out of the tube, then pushed it from the bottom.
  • introduced the old cable into the front part of the cut hose, in order to use the cable as a guide for the new hose
  • removed the front part of the cut hose, but not the cable
  • removed the spring
  • introduced the spring on the new hose, and insert the hose on the cable
  • pushed the hose so that it crossed the handlebar stem and guided it outside using the cable
  • removed the cable and cut the hose on each end + add hose end parts
  • introduced the new cable
  • done
