• I'm totally new to the world of hydraulic disc brakes so this might be a stupid question but here goes anyway...

    I've just received some Rival Hydro shifters / calipers. I have internal routing and want to fit the rear first so I can put the bb in, chainset etc. How on earth do I disconnect the hose from the caliper and run it through the frame without fluid going everywhere? SRAM seem to talk about a connectmajig and I've looked online but can only really see info about seatposts.

    Help much appreciated!

  • As long as you don't start using the brake lever while the hose is dismantled, little or no fluid will come out. The hoses have a tiny bore, and the fluid will be quite happy staying where it is.
