After absorber removed for servicing purpose, found the brake hose already cracked.
I made a decision to use a custom made hose. Went to a nearby hydraulic shop to made it. It just a straight hydraulic hose with 3000 psi pressure printed on that hose. It also a multi layer hose with steel braided in the middle.
To remove the old hose, I made a mistake by rounded the nut. Then need to removed steel hose to the shop again to replace rounded nut. Unluckily, the original hose cannot be flare. The steel hose broke when try to flared it. Again, new steel hose to replaced that one.
Hopefully, this new setup is worth and last long.
*Unfortunately these type of hose is not suitable for brake line purpose. This hose expend when brake pedal pressed.
