Default Braided brake lines,

Got to get some for the brake conversion, could you guys tell me the best place to go, how much and are they an off the shelf item or did you have to wait for them to be made. They are for the front brakes.

Cheers guys,

Just pick up a copy of PF,FF, etc off the shelf item at lots of places, next day del and all that.
Think they are around the £50/60 mark for a full set, might as well get stainless for a few extra quid!!

The ones I keep on the shelf are standard length, standard fitments.
If you are going for a larger diameter disc the calliper will be in a different place, causing the lines to resemble piano strings on full lock.
Order right, i.e longer 1st time.
