Sounds like a good idea. Do you know the length of it?

Same length as the one supplied for the NC21, im sure if you look up that part one of the makers will list the length
My NC21 hose arrived from venhill today and it has the normal straight banjo on one end but then a straight (ie no banjo just screw straight in) on the other. Is this right?
depends if your ordered the hose with the ends or not. the stock hose has banjos on each end and the aftermarket one i bought had banjos on each end, I think it was a goodrich hose.

Many kits come with screw on ends so you can put on your own banjos, i suggest you contact them and ask them why there is no banjo on each end.

You can see the stock hose alhtough it has metal section has a banjo on each end

Here's what I got. Annoyingly Venhill also sent the wrong banjo when I ordered brake lines from them. They did sort it out though.

hmm interesting.

Well thje stock line uses a banjo each end but theyve sent you a screw in jobby that screws into the slave cylinder and then the line screws onto that.

you proabbly can still use that as it is but worht speaking to them to see if they supposed to have sent you two banjos instead..

(say something like "I friend rebuilt his nc21 and the line he bought has a banjo each end, is this setup ok?")

providing it doesnt interfere with something then its probably ok

They said the info they have stock is that the banjo is the screw in type rather than an actual banjo but it soudns like they will send me another banjo and bolt. I've just asked for another straight one or slightly bent one. It's also got me worried about the length so i will have to roughly check that Friday unless someone can measure there's (i can only vaguely hold mien against the bike as i still have cable on ready for the track this weekend)

lol tell them that their information sucks ass and they should speak to goodrich who have it right

slave cylinder end

Image

master cylinder end

you can route the hose as a test fit just to see how it fits and youll get an idea on lenght.
