Scott Spark frame advice

I just bought a carbon one of these and was building it today, i come to put my rear brake hose in the cable guides on the down tube and it won’t fit in.
I’m using Hope Mono Minis, aren’t the hoses a universal size?

Any advice appreciated.

Flip,

I have a Spark and fitted Juicy Ultimates no problem. As I recall, the cable guides are two part jobbies held together with an allen screw. Just take them apart, lay the hose in the lower part and re-assemble.

Not sure if Minis have bigger hoses though?

Sounds like you’ve used 5mm shift cable.. the Spark hose guides have 1 4mm side and 1 5mm side.. shift cable goes in the 4mm size (4mm is lighter.. hence spec’d on the sparks oem build) while all hydro hose is 5mm.

oops sorry.. hope used to use 6mm hose apparently.

Seems i have the old bigger 6mm hose, might need new brakes……

Or i can fashion some new brackets.

Thanks for your replies.

Get a goodridge braided hose kit for the rear. About £25ish…
