I've got a set of Shimano Deore hydraulic brakes, but the hoses are too long. How do I cut these? just by pliers? Is there an oilve at the end?

I have the same ones, cut the pipe and fit a new olive. Sometimes you can get away with using the old olive if the person that did it up before didn't hang on it! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

I need to get a couple of olives then... Sounds the same as US bikes, can you get custom hoses from Goodridge? I know they make them for Hope brakes. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:
