Hope brass Olive for 5mm hose

[development_cycle]

Needing one to shorten a hose (might need the barb too depending how good I am at doing it. All the usual suspects now offering free delivery over £9, £10, or some other random number and I'm just needing one at the mo.

I shortened a couple of brakes recently and didn't need to replace anything. Give it a go, you might be surprised. The biggest pain was getting the barbed bit out of the hose on one end, the other was fine. Olives seemed to be fine after opening up a bit, sliding down the hose and refitting once shortened.

MA that's my point, £1.99 for the part and £2.50 for the postage

Just been told it's going in the post with no fluid so will be able to try out first and se what happens, and then just get one if I need it. Will just need a think about what else I need. Actually my daughter needs some new gloves which might just do it
