@toaster56 Admittedly, the hose looks too short at the beginning of the video, but It's a funny angle. If you watch the action shots of Andy on the trail, you'll see that there is a nice bend to the hose with plenty of slack. The bike was also built with 30cm of spacer stack underneath the stem. The hose was cut with the stem as high as possible. If a customer lowered it, there wouldn't be a problem with extra flappy hose. Keen eye though...
I would not have used xx brakes. I dont care that your "cross breeding" with another brand the xx brakes have crappy modulation and feel spongey. I would choose the magura mt8's all the way
@racecrewleader Do you also deal with problem of the levers hitting your knuckles while breaking? I have them all the way out I'm using Elixir R, but same build style
@MorrisseyOner no I have the x0's wich are set up exactly the same the modulation isnt as bad as the xx but its not as good as magura. The mt8's are really expencive but there worth it fully
$5,500 is not affordable.
