Renewing hope hoses

I may have to renew my braided hoses on my Mono mini's, well the rear one anyway and shorten the front one. The back one is a little short for my new build, and it has taken a battering.
I am more than happy doing it I was just wondering how re-usable the parts are i.e the olives and brass hose end inserts, the brakes are about 2 years old.
Will I get away with it? bearing in mind they are 2 yrs old and never been removed.
Cheers.

download the manual it covers it.
generally Hope connections are fully reusable."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

They are reusable ive found cutting the olives in half and making collets out of them helps as the pipe can be a bit big.0
