Santa Cruz Blur, 2024 model...I swapped brakes, and now rear brake hose is bouncing around.
It did not when I got the bike a few months ago, with oem Sram Level brakes. So if they had a foam thing to stop the noise, I pulled the old hose out leaving it inside.
I bought a new pack of rubber hose stuff, but how on earth will I install it, or get the old sleeve out, when the holes on the Blur are just barely big enough for the cable?
Many online videos show frames with big old openings where you can just pop the hose off the lever, slide down the hose, shove it in the hole, and that's it. But no way I can fit the rubber thing over the hose AND squeeze it through that hole.
And the hose enters the BB area way forward of the bb hole, so that won't really work.
Is there something I'm missing here? Through the head tube after I take off the whole fork? Somehow do it through there?
