I haven't done this but have heard many people using this connector to join the old and new hose then pull it through the frame.

There might be a tutorial for this process on Youtube if you need it.
The connector can be found online for a few dollars.

Use the SRAM barb to PUSH through the frame - don't pull it.

Use the SRAM barb to PUSH through the frame - don't pull it.

The way I did this using a non branded ‘SRAM barb’ was…

Disconnect the hose at the caliper, and chop the connector off. You now have a bare hose end.

Screw the SRAM barb into it.
Screw the new hose (lever end) into the other side of the SRAM barb (remove any existing ferrules etc if necessary).

PULL the old hose from the lever end through the internal frame routing carefully and slowly. As it pulls out, it’s pulling the new hose in.

Once the whole new hose is through, remove the SRAM barb and fit a new ferrule / barb to attach it to the lever.

Fill with new fluid and bleed as required.
