The ABS pipes can be divided into three groups:

- rigid connecting pipes from the ABS control unit to the front and rear flexible brake connecting pipes. The rear brake pipes are divided into two sections, for fitting requirements, and they are protected by a special shield in the section exposed to the risk of damage.

- flexible connecting pipes between the rigid pipes and the brake callipers.

The rigid and flexible pipes are secured to the body by special brackets and/or fastening clips.
