Brake line clearance

Thoughts on this please chaps. On lock each way and just not sure about the flexible brake lines being so close.
Thanks

If it's clear throughout lock-to-lock range, I would think covering it with a bit of split rubber hose where it's close should be fine.
Ultimately if you're not happy, get a new hose which doesn't come straight out of the calliper but has a suitable bend in the fitting.

I have angled banjo fittings on mine, sets the bend in the right direction from the outset.

I'd also prefer less fittings between flexi and the caliper  straight in or a banjo to change direction.

Well... the pictures are huge 
Though they don't contack anything, I'd say the hoses are too long. You want them to just have a bit of slack/droop when fully extended;
That means there's as little loop as possible to keep clear of anything when on lock the other way.

Maybe too late now, but, wouldn´t be better to have the hose exiting right next to lower A-Arm?

I to would like the flexi cable to go straight in but the calliper is 1/8npt and the hose is m10. I don't really want to tap the calliper to m10
as I think there still under warranty as the were brand new when I go them but thinking it maybe the way to go and would look a lot neater.
