Brake hoses?

#1 Post by Aladinsaneuk » Sat Nov 03, 2007 9:53 pm

ok all

I will shortly be changing my disks, and while I am at it, I thgt I would change to braided brake hoses - any suggestions on who to go with company wise?

I assume that I should buy a mille set as I have switched to a mille swing arm :)

Pete, I bought a set of braided hoses from ebay (pre-used). Price was good so I was prepared that the one for the back brake when I change the swinger may be the only one that fits.
Glad I was prepared as the others aren't long enough!

Think you really want Falco ones for front brakes and clutch and mille for rear brake (or I could try to flog you the front brake and clutch ones that are no use to me!).

Hope this helps!

I got mine from Hel. Ordered the Falco ones and the kit they sent had Falco/Mille written on the box. Worked champion on both Falco and Mille swingarms on my bike. Bleeding the rear is another story tho!
