I've seen a dual clamp setup that holds hoses side by side. a few of them and a couple of zip ties to keep the small brake line with the larger hyd lines would work. Most places that make up hyd lines also have the abrasion resistant sleeving that you might be avle to fit it all into.

Edit: something like this with a few zit ties to keep it all togehter would work:

Well, it's kind of rare and expensive, but you might want to try these things out...



I think they call them zip ties or something

I use the velco version for work. It's great because you can open it up to add another cable, or do repairs. So in your case, you can remove it for clean up and then put it all back together for the next run.
