Need to replace the front hose on my Xt M775 as its too short.

Shimano techdocs list it as SM-BH59, Deore cuttable hose, however this is now a discontinued line at Madison.It seems to have been replaced with SM-BH90,Deore cuttable hose, which is also £8 cheaper at £11.99

Thanks for your reply Coatesy, has anyone used any aftermarket hoses, do they increase performance?

braided ones can wear the frame/fork as they rub more but are much more resistant to kinks. Also look better

Happy with my Superstar (cheaper of their two options) using standard hope fittings on Hope brakes. Loads of colours as well if that's your thing.
