Do M785 brakes use a different size olive/insert from other Shimano models?
And does anyone sell a multipack/job lot? (As the going rate of £2.50 per olive seems a little steep for a tight git like me)

They're the same size throughout the range, and retail at £1.49 each. Your £2.49 gets you an olive and barb (you'll need silver for a M785 hose, but you can re-use your old one if you file through the compressed olive, then trim away the hose from it), Ask your LBS if they'll get you 10 for a discounted price.
