[Closed] Fitting a reverb stealth

They are haunted.

do you have a hole in the frame?
do you have a bleed kit?

not fitted one but what I'd expect to be the issues 🙂

Yes have a hole in the frame, yes got a bleed kit, my worry is shortening the hose, do I need anything special to cut it with?

I use these for trimming hydraulic hoses [url= http://www.koo-bikes.com/park-tool-cn10c-pro-cable-and-housing-cutter.html?gclid=CISo6fevhLoCFfMdtAodARAACg ]link[/url]

Shapr Stanley knife will cut most hydraulic hoses.
Metal braided ones, probably not though!

Not sure of the hose is braided on the reverb, I haven't got it yet

Not braided.

And when you come to disconnect the hose from the either the button or the post I suggest you choose the post end, then you can 'thread' the hose up through the frame, making life slightly easier...not like what I did..

I never thought of that minty, good advice cheers

You're welcome! You'll be fine, they're ace too

I had the old style one on my old bike and loved it but been waiting ages to get a stealth one to fit my new bike, I couldn't find any one in uk that had a 31.6 with left hand remote, so decided to order one from a German company that had them in stock, some one of here told me who had them, don't you just love stw people for helping out

Post comes with a double ended barb. You push a piece of gear or brake housing up though the frame, put the barb on the top, attach to the reverb hose and pull it down through the seat tube.

I did mine, and cut the hose, without needing to bleed.

Cut hose with cable cutters
