Bicycle fork hydraulic brake line holder

thingiverse

I designed a clip to secure the hydraulic brake line on my cyclocross bike, preventing it from rubbing against the paint on the head tube and damaging it. The clip is attached with an M4 x 30 mm screw that fits snugly into a tapped interior hole for easy threading. A 5 mm O.D. hydraulic brake line clips securely into place, but I also included a slot to insert a zip tie for added stability. So far, the clip has worked flawlessly. To avoid needing supports during printing, I printed it on its side with the zip-tie slot oriented vertically. While support was required in other areas, it came off easily without any issues. This design requires only 2 grams of material at 100% infill and can be printed in under 30 minutes at a layer resolution of 0.12 mm. The clip was created using FreeCAD, and I've included the part file in FCStd format for anyone who wants to modify or print it themselves.
