    RD03 front brake pipe routing

    Hi all, How have you routed a braided front brake pipe on an RD03 without it catching on anything under fork compression or on full lock ??.

    I've ordered a 1000mm line as the 1050 one is a bit long but as you know the braided lines are considerably thinner than the original rubber ones so how have you secured it in the clamp on the lower yoke ? - wrap some tape on the pipe to make the gap up or leave it loose in the clamp ?.

    Thanks

    Hi Ian.

    I just left mine alone.
    Just as you say, the braided hose has a smaller diameter, never the less,
    I just left it as it is, and have had no problems with it for three years now.

    Let me know if you need pictures.
