Heinz,
I noticed this issue on Aldermog after fitting Brake reaction bars. I took the cheap way out, by slitting along the length of suitable silicone tubing and sliding over the brake hose, securing with a thin strip of silicone rubber along the cut.
The silicone hose was free to move and it seems that this protects the rubber brake hose sufficiently.


Yes I think your solution is a good move as long as the brake hoses are quite good. So it should be an effective protection for everyone with brake reaction bars on a Trad model, because the brake hoses touch the bars when steering every corner.
