The Goodridge ones I bought as 3 bits - 2 x SS banjos ( you can get all types with a range of different standard angles in 2 planes) and a hose cut to a set length (variable in c10mm increments) pre fitted with the captive SS rotating olive nuts so fitting was simplicity itself. Because the hose is free to rotate and the banjos at either end are free to rotate until the olive nuts/banjo unions are tightened you can get the route of the line completely set without stressing the pipework at all before you tighten everything up. I will definitely buy Goodridge again when I do my 750SS.

The Venhill brake hose system on the other hand is a complete nightmare as this comes as a kit of parts and getting the PTFE liner to fit over the banjo hose spout was virtually impossible and even when you managed that the olive nut would not move over the expanded section where the hose went over the increased diameter on the banjo hose spout. Not recommended at all.
