Reply to "Brake hose length needed asap!"

Hi Gents! Fwiw when I purchased 1010 it had three 'herringbone' type hoses that I ASSUME were original.  The fittings at the caliper ends are 100% identical to the example in Lee's photo.  Not dates or marking on any of them but the overall lengths were 17.5" in front and 14.75" rear.   The right rear measured 16" but had a smooth surface.....no herringbone....I assume it was a replacement....)

According to one internet repro vendor, a GHP71 measures 433mm (~17").   I can't find a comparable measurement for a GHP71/1 but that number (with slash) is certainly out there & must mean something!   

All my new hoses are around 17.5" (total length).  While the fit looks great in front the rears seem a bit long (see photo).  That said, in comparison the old 14.75" rear hose must have been a very trim fit!
