I want to route my reverb hose through my frame but with the frame having a smaller 4mm opening for cable operated dropper posts the hose is too thick.


I'd like to replace the hose with a thinner 4mm hose if one exists?? Does anyone have any idea if 4mm hose is available or is all hydraulic hose 5mm?

Thanks

    Not looked at a Reverb, but assume it uses olives, so if you use a smaller OD hose you'll need a smaller ID Olive that still fits the nut/body, also if it means a smaller hose ID you'd need a different insert.....don't think it's going to happen!
