Google can't answer me, help me STW!

I have some SLX brakes that I cut down the hose to fit my HT. Now I need them longer to fit my FS ๐Ÿ˜ก

The hoses are marked BH 90, will this kit do?

The only reason why not, is that the XTR has a different banjo or lever fitting?

What are my alternatives? I'm not familiar enough with brake hoses to buy the bits separately and go crimping the bajo on correctly ๐Ÿ˜ณ

I have just used superstar braided hoses and their stainless fitting kit 2 for my m785's. works fine, so you should be ok with the same. Doddle to fit.

Yes, that should work, as according to [url= http://www.bike-components.de/products/info/p28864_Bremsleitung-SM-BH90-kuerzbar-mit-Banjo-fuer-XTR--XT--Deore--SLX-.html?xtcr=1&xtmcl=bh90 ]this[/url] the Shimano BH90 kit fits M985 XTR, M785 XT, M820 Saint and M666/675 SLX. Bought one as a spare to cover both my XT and SLX brakes recently. Comes with all the fittings you'll need, but don't forget a bottle of Shimano mineral oil ๐Ÿ˜‰
