Hi, i'm trying to connect my bath taps but need some advice on length of flexi pipe. Is it buy longer ones and bend like i have in my pictures, or get some smaller ones?

My worry is that if i buy smaller ones because they are 22mm they won't bend onto the tap threads because its pretty stiff? and they are quite a way from centre of bath (pipework)

thanks!
 
Be fine with the longer on
 
Be better with rigid copper but longer flexi's will do just no sharp bends or kinks on the flexi

Hello, I have a troublesome fixed 15mm copper pipe with isolation valve going to my toilet fill valve. It's too tight for a Flexi hose. Can I use a push fit tap connector instead which will give me more flexibility in fitting?
