how flexible is straight silicone hose?

following on from last nights post. the silicone coolant hoses i found are sold in straight lengths by the meter!
my question is, how flexible are these straight lengths and are they suitable for an install where runs are not straight? the reinforced (bendy) silicone hose is about 3 times the price!

Less then 30 degrees over 20cm length.
Not very flexible, they will kink and collapse quickly

How much of the bendy stuff do you need and what colour, I may need some 32mm in blue but dont need a metre?

Cheers

Small stuff mate for header tank. 18mm,10mm and 8mm. About a meter of each will do

No worries mate, if it was the same, I thought we could go halves or work something out.

Take care
