braided rear line or standard..

saw a cheap braided rear line on ebay was gonna get it. just wondered how many people here use braided lines and if they are good etc... some people have said they are a bit too on/off switch rather than progressive.. just wondered if anyone could reccomend it or not.. I tried searching forums but couldn't find this specific question.

I just put a braided rear line on my 929. I specifically wanted to see if it made my HB bite harder. It did make a slight difference. Couldn't tell a difference in sensitivity though.

Re: braided rear line or standard..

a braided line will only feel SLIGHTLY better at first... their real benefit is that they will fade a LOT less while being used hard, so yes, they are a good investment for all the lines on your bike!

I like it and if you have 6' of it for your HB why not have it all braided Its not night and day but you can feel it slightly
