braided brake lines
does anyone know some facts about braided brake lines... would it be worth swapping my hb brake line for some steel braided lines or would it not be worth my while..???

I love this its not a sport its your life in overdrive.

Re: braided brake lines
If you ask anyone who rides my bike they will tell you that my brakes are strong. I do my stoppies with only one finger. Never enough power. Lines will keep fading down and give you more feedback. They just make your brakes more predictable and consistant.

I have steel lines all the way around on every bike I own.. totally worth it
