Hi Lads & Lasses,

I have just built myself another MTB, this time Giant xtc flavour. One problem i cannot remedy is the fixing of the rear hydraulic brake hose under the toptube. Now, it does clip into the frame but is rather loose in the clips & droops under its own weight as it runs along the underside of the toptube. Has anyone a solution to this problem.

Cheers in advance

Electric insulating tape or similar. Use it to build up the thickness of the hose at the point where it passes through the guide. Wind it around until it is slightly larger than the guide, and you can squeeze it in to place. Holds the hose in and looks neat.
