Hi All,

Does anyone know (from experience) what size the black plastic tubing that is the axle breather tube is? I would like to maybe extend it from where it is (ie extend from the 'U' shaped section on the end) I was thinking an inline joiner and extension tube. Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks

Pretty sure I did mine with 1/4 inch plastic tubing. Pretty common stuff

It is actually metric (6mm I think) - but 1/4" works fine as do tube conectors desgined for 1/4" - no problem in joining the two - or just rerun it completly in 1/4"

PS - use nylon and not polyethylene tubing.
