Hose brand was Black Diamond. I did research before getting them and I was recommended HEL or Black Diamond as even alternatives. Third option was Goodridge but were not available at that time.

Markos - yes, was wondering myself looking at the way it snapped but really there was no indication that its too tight or improperly angled, had 3 NCT tests since and didnt do anything in "that area". From the pic of wheelarch you can se it is attached to shock holding mount with rubber and there is still rubber neck on braiding intact. ALso it wasnt me installing them but my mech so my inexperience wouldnt be an issue.
