sorted out routing the front brake hose through the fork steerer. Now with a connection point.
It is a piece of handlebar with m20 thread cut on the inside that is epoxy glued into the steerer tube.
and then a m20 crank arm bolt is used as a top cap. The hole in the middle is a perfect fit for a brake hose fitting.
It would be a really neat solution if the crank arm bolt was slightly larger as now it needs another topcap with a big hole cut in it underneath to work (the greenish bit in the first photo)
