Default Comp B4 brake question.......URGENT!!!

Regarding the Comp B4 front brake calipers. We assumed that they would be standard thread size for the brake hose fitting (i.e. M10x1.0), but an M10x1.0 fitting doesn't screw in very nicely.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

If so, what thread size is correct??

I thought these were supposed to fit with standard Cossie hoses?? It looks like they are 1/8th NPT thread. I wonder if those that have fitted them have just wound the hoses in and mashed the threads??!!

I imagine they would just wind in, but it's not right!!
