• What are the things that look like 'gear cable style inline adjusters' on my hydraulic hoses?

    Probably anti frame rub buffers or something.

    Also, what do I do if my brakes are currently rubbing?

    Reset the pistons then re-align the caliper.

    Check out the manual fo' yo' brakes to find out how to reset without buggering them up.

  • Looks like they've joined two lengths of hose together.

    Have a similar problem - dismal online bike purchase setup - hence request for disc tube above :)

    But yours is worse!
