For a good year ive been promiseing my bike some braided lines, seeing as the others have been on 25years.. they took 48 hours, phoned me the minute they arrived and i picked them up, they chuked in a load of extra copper washers for nowt, theres like 5p each but they didn't have to.. fitted them today, (after some unrelated problems were sorted) and farkin eck they are incredable! i've not road tested them yet but gonna have to be bloody carefull i know any braided lines are gonna be allot better than knackered old ones
Cost £30 for two 35" lines (think its more or less £15 per line) they supply hydraulic hoses and fittings for anything, some bloody serious looking stuff, but dispite this they were all friendly and uber helpfull (not arsey twats you'll sometimes get)
You can have loads of colours and any arrangment you like (you'll have to tell the length and angles, maybe take pics of how they go on), the derby one i went to but theres loads allover the country, so anyone after hoses then give them a phone!  ____________________ >RidingSkills<->Tech Tips<->MyBikes< |

I use them all the time for my work. I have never found them that cheap to be honest and I get a discount too. I was thinking of using them for brake hoses but I never asked for a price. I should have done. ____________________ Past >>>> Honda NSR 125 >>>> Suzuki GSXR 600 K1 >>>> Suzuki GSXR 600 K4 >>>>Kawasaki Z1000 DAF >>>>Suzuki RMZ 250 >>>> Current >>>> KTM Superduke R 1290 >>>> |
