brake line replacement - ponkster - 10-07-12
I am looking to upgrade my brake lines to stainless braided ones
What sytem have you guys gone for? - have you stuck with the single line to a splitter into to two lines front brake type or converted to a two lines from the master cylinder to caliper front system?
What are the merits of each system? ( other than one being cheaper)

hi ponkster i upgraded to hel lines bought from bikebits ni i went for the two lines from lever to caliper i think it looks better
i also fitted ebc pads all round front and back the braking difference is unreal they actually stop the bike now :lol its a mod well worth doing :thumbup

I went with HEL too, two lines from the lever. If you're still on the original lines, its a well overdue mod :thumbup

Thanks for the replys - I think I will go for a two line system - seems like a cleaner simple system to me too.

Anyone got a guide on fitting and bleeding the buggers? If I recall, the double banjo at the master cylinder is a bit trickey to get the air out of... :'(
