    Just changed frames and the rear hose is too short, doh! Thought I might use the opportunity to change to a white hose to match the frame, anyone know if the superstar hoses are the same spec/any good? Cheers

    The hose itself won’t be a direct fit, and last time I looked, they don’t do a fitting kit for 785’s

    Thanks cp, I emailed them earlier about which fitting kit…. If any?! Ideally I just want to swap over the hose, direct replacement so think I May have to stick with Shimano unless there are any other suggestions?

    You would need fitting kit 2, though you will still have to use your own banjo bolts…

    Hose works fine.

    As Jay said, you need to use your current banjo bolt (the one in the fitting kit isn’t long enough) but the other parts of the fitting kit are ok.

    Cheers, adding it up the superstar hose and fitting comes to £22 and can just seen that you can get a white shimano set from crc for £27 so for £5 diference think I’m going to go with the easy option!
