Rally Design do braided brake hose kits or hose and ends to make your own up. They are thier own make but seem ok on a friends car (no leaks etc). When you say os is that oversize? Why would you want bigger hose, brakes dont need alot of fluid flow just strong pipe to hold high pressure.

Dont use the flashy alloy ones they look pretty but are alot weaker, galv steel will be fine. I use Lister & Sons in B'ham, they had an offer of a tenner a line when i did my Chim, was + Vodka and tonic but i think damn reasonable!
