I stupidly sat on my bike while the seatpost collar was a bit loose, which caused my Reverb Stealth to slip down and damage the hose right before it connects to the silver piece before the Connectamajig (damaged area indicated below). Oil has pissed out at this spot and the Reverb no longer functions.
Rather than fit a whole new hose, how simple would it be to shorten the existing hose at the seatpost end? Can the hose be unscrewed from the silver piece shown, then rescrewed into the hose once I cut off the damaged part, or would I need a new silver piece?
Stressing a bit about this as I’m off to Canada on Wednesday and would rather fix it now than mess around with it on the first morning of riding. 😕
