When undertaking this repair, the process entails first detaching the brake hoses from the lever. For a smooth installation of the new components, start by sliding the rubber cover gasket on, followed by the bolt, and finally the olive. Gently insert the connector into the hose using your hand. For added security during installation, plastic clamp blocks can be employed to stabilize the hose. To ensure a flush fit, use a hammer to gently knock the connector into place. Subsequently, push the hose back into the lever by approximately half an inch. Now, turn the bolt to firmly secure the hose in position, effectively crushing the olive to create a tight seal.

To ensure optimal safety, utilize a torque wrench to securely fasten the components in place. With this comprehensive kit and precise installation, your brake system will be primed for smooth and reliable performance on every ride.
