Sketchy Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 The crossover hose on my magura has split. I would like to replace it with a braded one. Is it possible to buy the crossover hose and connectors as a set or do i have to buy a whole new hose. If anyone can help out with prices, makes, and where abouts then id be grateful.

Will ← arent the Unex uns ment to leek between the braided part? Ring up/e-mail Goodridge for spare parts, i.e that little bit that you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trialskid Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 goodride dont do crossovers. i got a braided cross over made up a while back from a place called pirtek in swindon but im sure you will have one around you. just go in there and ask. i took in the fittings that you put in the normal black hosing and they just "pressed" a baided bit of hose on. if you get me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

011001000110010101110010 Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Unex ones are cheap and horrible. I had endless hassel with mine. Go for goodridge, I've only heard good things about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swindon rider Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Magura original ones are the best i've found, the goodrich are very thin diameter in the middle and tend to be a bit slower, ask james! I say maugra is it is what I, ive heard nasty things about unex but ive not used it. Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne-king Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Goodridge if you go for goodridge, that's what you need. you can get a unex bridge hose seperately (that's what i've done) the goodridge hoses are good, the lever return is slower than brakes with standard plastic hosing, but it's not really a problem. They are a bit of a bitch to fit, so make sure you have some decent cable cutters because if the braided steel gets frayed and nasty, the fittings are nearly impossible to screw on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu ← If you use a magura cross-over and keep the normal main line, you'll need to change the fitting on the end of the line. I've had very few problems with my Magura braided stuff (One set I have is about 5 years old now) Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
