Shorten braided brake line?

[marmel]

I have fitted rear sets to my bike which has relocated the master cylinder. The rear braided brake line is now about 150mm too long.

Does anyone know who has the right gear to shorten and crimp on a new banjo?

I talked to the local brake specialist and he said they couldn't legally do it.

I don't mind sending it somewhere with a courier.

I think you'll find that no-one can actually do it legally.

Just buy a shorter hose.

What he said - buy a shorter hose. You'll want the longer one for when you sell the bike and take off the rearsets (to sell separately on TM).

150 mm ain't much - can you not just run it with the existing in a nice arc?
