Is it 4mm ?
I was thinking of cutting old one off and popping new one on , sound like a good plan ?

Meaning to come back and say they are 5mm not 4mm.
Anyone need some 4mm olives ?

It depends on which brake they're for.
Definitely different between MTB & road brakes, that I have, so you need to check which type is required for YOUR particular model of brake.
