Braided Lines - Whats Best?

[Phil_Norwich]

Thinking of upgrading my brake lines, had a look as the usual suspects HEL, Goodridge etc but theres different makes on eBay such as Cobra etc.

Whats the best line to go for? Or are they all pretty much the same?

Thanks in advance, Phil.

I've got Hel lines on my front brake, good quality IMO.

I prefer Spiegler because you can adjust the banjo bolts on them and come in many custom color combos.

Hel get my vote.

Got Goodridge (race pattern) on mine, not noticed any difference from original lines they were still in great condition, so whatever you get don't expect a huge difference.
My mates got Cobra on his bike (Thruxton, heavy and running Street triple brake) and no problem with them.

venhill on the front a and a cheap wezmoto one on the back , all work fine with stainless fittings

Wezmoto isn't cheap stuff. He's a mate of mine and I know for a fact he uses Venhill

He used to use Goodridge until their quality went down the shitter.
