Last summer I had to replace my braided lines as eventually these get tired too! They'll last a lot longer than the rubber tho'.
I went with a set of venhills, UK made a bargain on fleabay at £50
Interesting that they degrade as well as was watching a 2nd hand set from breakers on Ebay - maybe not such a good idea, you just cant gaurantee where they are in the lifecycle.
I had Goodridge on my old bike, as at the time they were the household name, but they had crappy plated banjo bolts, if buying again I would make sure they include stainless fittings not zinc plated.
- How do you claim your FOC discount then?

Don't even consider used brake lines, you'll have zero idea of what they've been through or what condition they're in, it's basically false economy.
As always mentioned on here before, don't scrimp on brakes and tyres.
