I have just taken delivery of a new Giant Reign 2, fitted with Fox 32 Float forks. I noticed the hose routing for the front brake goes inside the fork stanshion to the caliper. I went out for a ride yesterday and it was quite muddy. Within a couple of minutes the mud was rubbing on the brake hose. This cant be any good for the hose.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a remedy for it?, I re-routed mine outside the stanshion and cable tied it in place....looks pikey!!!!

    And that is why I route my hoses out away from the wheel.

    Have you just cable tied it out the way? Are there any special cable guide that can be bought?
