Anyone out there can help?

[GRAgusta]

Close to being finished putting the old girl back together .... I have fitted brake hoses from hel, which are nice and shiny.

But, I have gone for a two hose set up. The left hose is nicely secured by the original bracket behind the lower yoke.

On the right side I need to get manufactured somehow, a bracket.



All I need is a stainless steel plate, bent to fit around the hose (there is a grommet on the hose about 14mm OD) and drilled to fit on the existing bolt.

Is there anyone out there in Boxertrix land who can help manufacture such a thing?

I might be able to help, we have P shaped clips at work to suit a variety of different diameter pipes or cables, they are stainless and have a (black or orange)rubber protective cover on them which can be removed. If you let me know what diameter you need I can send one with a cover on and one without, I will also need the stud size so I can open up the hole if required.
PM me your details and we can sort things over the phone.

As above, I used a P clip when I did the same job on my old 11S, just search ebay for "p clips"

HEL can supply you with P clips.

HEL clips are not as cheap as free ones

Thanks again for everyone's useful comments ... every day is a school day

I have also discovered I need a couple of brake hose separators to make my installation super effective and avoid chaffing so I have bought said hose separators and a P clip on t'internet.

Job done ....

You're in luck, the BM is sitting out front of the office today - I am currently using each bike in turn for the morning commute.

I'm pretty happy that the installation is neat, but the bolt holding the P clip could do with being cut short.

With the Hel lines fitted there is no movement in the brake lever, still plenty of feel but virtually no movement.

By eck, your bike is cleaner than mine! Nice job. Thanks for piccie

I am ready to fit my Hel lines and with reference to this post I think you can remove the bracket that the p clip is fitted to and simply fit p clip in its place.? Means moving line over app 30mm but hey no bridging piece to worry about!.

Thats what I did with the p clip, works fine.
