Default Flexible brake cooling hose in 2-1/2"....where to get?

I know this is an odd size as 3" & 4" are much more common. I'm sure it exists but where is the question of the day? Any ideas?

Aircraft Spruce. Sceet or Scat tubing. In 1/2" increments. They have your size. I'm using the Sceet. Not cheap, but takes a lot more abuse than the cheaper stuff. Thanks to John Shiels for pointing me in that direction.

I like CEET

It is double walled, so the wire doesn't un-coil, and is pretty durable. The Silicon is nice, but pricier

This is where I purchased mine. I used the cheap Black stuff my first year and it was junk. I bought the Red Silicone and it is holding up very well.
Good Luck
