ok after riding it for a few days that little sticky that RS gives you to hold the cable holder on fork let out even with the zip tie on it. any one who owns a pike how have you dealt with this?

i gues

i guess no one can help me then.

RS gives that same piece of crap with all their forks I didn't even bother putting it on my Boxxer.
ZIP TIES

yea right now it just ziped tied to the fork leg. but im not liking it cuz the cable is a little long and gets caught up in the tire some times and i realy hate when that happens.

I just zip tie it to the arch and electrical tape it to the fork leg. Works well for me since it's a black team fork anyway.

sounds good. might throw some e tape under the cable were it rubs to save my fork a bit even though i already scratched the for leg im geting to cocky on it already .

one fat sip tie, in the spot with the little nubs for it on the arch. cable on the inside of the leg. doesn't flop, and is close enought o the leg, that there is no contact with the wheel, even with full compression. these are cables for avid mechs, but i don't see why this wouldn't work for hydro hoses as well. had it this way for a few months now.

i guess use more zip ties/tape on the fork leg as needed, depending on how far out from the brake caliper your hose sits.

I sometimes wonder how people can deal with all those adjustments if you can't even take care of the friggin brake line without asking the forum.

heh. took me a couple minutes is all. had the coil side top cap off. tried the line inside and outside the leg, moving the fork through the travel. no kinking/catching on anything. looked better inside, and less chance of snagging on trail stuff. hooked it up, put the cap/coil back in/on. voila' it's good to go.

basically running the same setup on my z-150, with no difficulties either.

not like it's any different than setting up your line on any other single crown fork.
