DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH? 
Hydro lines....the tubes connecting your actuation levers to your disc brake calipers. I dunno what they call them in North America, probably something inappropriate, but you know the ones.
ARE THEY AVAILABLE. DOES ANYONE MAKE THEM.
And yes Patty, they're for MY PINK BIKE
Pink is the new black, and white is the new red.

For the record, its 'poseur.'
From what I can see, hydraulic lines for bikes are offered in black and silver. Its possible that, if you were in the US, a place like mcmaster-carr might be able to help you out, but I doubt any white hose is rated for the pressures hydraulic brake systems will see.

So the colour 'black' has inherant pressure resistance? I suspect hydro lines are hydro lines, so if the diameters and pressure ratings are the same, what else is there?
Time to Google it up me thinks.
For the record, only 'poseurs' spell 'poser' with a 'u'.

Tiger, contact your Aussie distrubutor of A-Z products. They'll have the stainless cables with a coating, which are at least as cool as white. Or there's always Krylon...

You might check with motorcycle parts suppliers. I've seen white hydraulic hose on motorcycles before, though you'd have to do some research to find the right size and fittings.

I suspect hydro lines are hydro lines, so if the diameters and pressure ratings are the same, what else is there?Hi, I'm looking for some hydraulic brake lines for my car/ute/motorbike/pushie. Yes, they'll be exposed to dirt, mud, road debris, etc. Can I get them in white? I mean, they'll match Ed's shoes that way.
