Hey, not been on for a while but good to see its still busy... So hope you can help...
I'm rebuilding my sons bike and the old hose is now cut too short. I have found an old hose (not attached to anything for about 4 years or more) that is from the same manufacture in an old box of gubbins...
I want to make sure that it is not contaminated, so whats the best way. Iso alcohol squirted through....?
Top tips appreciated.

I'd just flush it through with brake fluid from a bleed syringe and then maybe blow any remaining fluid out with an airline.
Only flush with brake fluid if you are going to use brake fluid in the brakes
OK - good plan - thanks...
We're getting one of these at work - shame it won't quite go down to mtb hose sizes......
Firing foam projectiles down pipes with a compressed air gun sounds fun. I'm sure someone will find alternative uses for it 🙂
