Pictures of rear brake hoses fitted

Hey,
has anyone got any pictures of their rear brake hoses fitted?
I'm trying to fit mine and not sure how much slack to leave for suspension movement etc.

Thanks

The bracket on the hub carrier looks somewhat flimsy, if I may be so bold.
A few hundred miles of shock and vibration is likely to see that bend or fracture with consequences on the bundy!
Just my 0.02c...

if you take the springs off the shocks you can then check with the full travel that you chosen position works.. Worth trying as where the hoses go and if they are under strain is difficult to tell without checking.. Good time to check wheel fouling of rear cycle wings as well...

Do you need a bit of copper pipe at the wheel end if you have rear calipers?
