SRAM Stealth-a-Majig Hydraulic Disc Brake Hose Fitting Kit (Threaded Barb & Olive)

Sovereign Hydraulic Integrity: Precision Threaded T8 Torx Hose Barb Meets Reverse-Threaded Stealth-a-Majig Olive for Foolproof, Leak-Free Brake Hose Trimming

Shorten your hydraulic brake lines for clean internal frame routing, eliminate spongey lever feel, and achieve a permanent factory-sealed connection. The SRAM Stealth-a-Majig Hydraulic Disc Brake Hose Fitting Kit is the mandatory, official replacement fitting system required when servicing, shortening, or installing modern SRAM and Avid hydraulic road, gravel, and mountain bike brakes. Engineered to eliminate leaks during initial system setup, this system features a threaded hose barb that screws directly into the inner hydraulic hose liner using a T8 Torx wrench, paired with a specialized red anodized olive that threads backwards over the barb stem. Sourcing original SRAM service hardware independently from overseas online warehouses often exposes you to frustrating shipping delays, premium customs surcharges, or low-grade knockoffs that strip during installation. Epic Sports handles all international bulk logistics natively, bringing genuine SRAM workshop spares straight to Nairobi. Outfitted for full backward compatibility across the entire SRAM hydraulic ecosystem, this essential hardware kit guarantees a crisp, leak-free lever bleed every single time.

Why the SRAM Stealth-a-Majig System is Mandatory for Workshop Builds:

• Precision Threaded Hose Barb Engagement: Zero hose bulging. Screw-in T8 Torx design drives straight into the center of the hydraulic hose without damaging the internal Teflon lining, ensuring unrestricted fluid flow.
• Reverse-Threaded Anodized Olive Integration: Fail-safe compression alignment. The signature red olive threads counter-clockwise onto the exposed barb threads, locking the hose assembly firmly together before it ever enters the lever body.
• Self-Sealing Lever Compression Architecture: Zero-bleed internal seating. As you tighten the hose compression nut into the lever body, the Stealth-a-Majig olive compresses evenly around the hose while forcing the barb forward to create a tight, dry hydraulic seal.
• Universal SRAM & Avid Ecosystem Compatibility: One fitting for all modern setups. Works seamlessly across all SRAM RED eTap AXS, Force, Rival, Apex, Code, Guide, Level, DB8, and G2 hydraulic brake systems.
• Mandatory Maintenance Standard: Single-use safety hardware. Whenever a hydraulic hose is cut or disconnected from a lever compression nut, a fresh olive and barb must be installed to prevent DOT fluid or Mineral Oil leaks.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for Discerning Mechanics & Riders:

Can I use older, non-Stealth-a-Majig olives and barbs on newer SRAM HRD or MTB levers?

While older-style smooth barbs and silver olives can physically fit into older levers, all modern SRAM Stealth-a-Majig levers require the red threaded olive and matching barb for proper installation. The internal lever compression cavity on Stealth-a-Majig levers is cut deeper to accommodate the threaded olive assembly. Using non-threaded old-style fittings in a Stealth-a-Majig lever can lead to improper seating, compressed hose damage, or sudden fluid leaks under heavy braking loads.

How do I correctly install the Stealth-a-Majig barb and red olive onto a cut hose?

Installation is simple and precise:

1. Trim your hydraulic brake hose clean and straight at a 90-degree angle using a dedicated hydraulic hose cutter.
2. Slide your lever compression nut and rubber boot onto the hose first.
3. Thread the hose barb into the end of the hose using a T8 Torx wrench until the barb flange sits completely flush against the cut hose edge.
4. Thread the red olive onto the exposed barb end counter-clockwise (left-hand thread) until it seats snugly against the flange.
5. Insert the assembly into the brake lever and tighten the compression nut to spec (5 Nm).
