Yeah I know he is and doing a dam good job
I was mearly saying that brake pipes can last if your not harsh braking all the time, I'm sure they've been manufactured to a high standard and would do most requirements but as you say, if your replacing loads of other stuff, why scrimp on new hoses. If i was striping down my bike as much as anutz has, I'd be looking to probably doing the same. But as I'm not and find my brake system good for me and my style of riding, I'll leave as is for the moment.
I also tend to do a lot of what anutz is doing during the winter months when there's less chance I'd want to use the bike, granted, some things are thrust upon us at a time that's not convenient
