Blue only,Sir.

Has anyone bought these hoses yet ?
Can you buy individual or just the set ? How much ?
The short stock inlet hose is very suspect on mine(it's swelling up)
Also that's the one that gets messed with on the valve adjust.

I could use a set also....now.

When I asked win last year, it was $80 USD.

I believe Ohio Dan has a set on his RX3, but you will have to go on ADV to ask him.

Also, I don't know if Win still checks his PM's on this forum. AFAIK, he does business on his Facebook page....but I don't do Facebook.

BTW, a few months ago I looked for the hoses on Aliexpess, with no luck.

I did find them on Taobao, but at the time, they had to be purchased in lots of ten or more.

I don't know if that is still the case.....and NO!, I'm not doing another group buy..

The short inlet radiator hose is also exposed to flying debris off the tire.
Silicone hose there or shield a new one.
Waiting on a reply from wynochook.

Inroads, any luck contacting Win?

I found the hoses again on Taobao, not in lots of 10.

Can't figure out how to order a "set".

Probably need an agent to contact the vendor.

Don't think I'm up to dealing with it again right now.

Just click the 5th option to get a complete set of 4 hoses for 85 Yuan ($12.35 USD).

Thanks again, Spud.

If we don't hear from Win, it looks like I will give Taobao another try.

At 12.35 USD, plus agent's fee, and shipping, it should be less.

You're welcome.

While you are at it, order some other items of light weight such as levers, cables, sensors, et cetera. You can save a lot of money.

I don't think those hoses are silicone; I think they are OEM Zongshen hoses.

Thanks for the heads up.

I was going by the blue color, since Win said they were only available in blue.

No response from Win, yet.

I found that he has a Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram account.

Unfortunately, I don't participate in any of those platforms.

Thanks to Ohio Dan on ADV, I have a contact for Win.

Waiting to see if I receive a reply.

I did find the real silicon hoses on Alibaba, direct from the manufacturer.

That is where there is a 10 set minimum.
