another brake line Q

Post by Martin »

Upon delivery of the new bike next month, I'm thinking of changing the OE rubber hoses for a set of Goodridge braided steel jobbies... I've been warned off getting the ones with coloured alloy banjos and advised to go for stainless, something to do with all the salt we like to put on our roads. Trouble is I like the look of the alloy, but not if it'll be dangerous. Got any views :?:

The coloured alloy ones look gay! Is that a good enough reason to go for the stainless ones?? :wink:
