My previous set of Hope Tech3v4 came with braided lines (5mm?), after struggling to get them into a Specialized Enduro frame's cable routing, I just swapped out the rear hose for a traditional hope hose which is of standard internal cable diameter (4mm possibly) and it worked.
When I got my current set, I made sure they weren't braided. As for pads, I've moved to MTX Ceramic (red) pads and find that they extract a bit more power out of the brake than the stock hope pads.
