Braided Brake Hose
« on: July 20, 2017, 07:25:36 »
Hi everyone

Can anyone please recommend a good make of hose, I want to change mine as I am doing the fluid next week along with everything else so might as well get it all done at once. Your experiences are most welcome, especially for an off the peg set rather than me measuring, buggered that one up before many years ago.

Cheers

Ian

Would you notice the brakes improved much with braided hoses or would new hh pads and new fluid and the system well bled be just as good?
