[Mark Strangways]

"how bad could a burst line be ?" Pretty much proportional to the speed at which your traveling :-)

  thanks for all the input guys,

  I think I will offer them for sale at 50bucks shipped continental US and if someone buys them fine, I will replace them with OE.. If they dont sell, I'll put them on for a year and see how the pedal feels and things wear. ..I mean how bad could a burst line actually be :0

    I bought TAP's SS lines all-round WAY back when, like so far back I really 
    forget.
    Has to be 8-10 years ago.
    Fronts where replaced due to BIRA sys 6, but the rears are still there no
    issues what so ever.

    I've installed Paragon braided lines on the 4 corner's 5 years ago when a 
    rear line failed. Five years later, I've have had three lines replaced on
    the rears (one failure, other 2 just had SS torn off but no failure) and now
    on rubber on the rears.

    You have to take into account that the S-Bitch is cursed and part-hungry, 
    but the fact I've runned through three rear lines while the front are still
    there and intact is a good indication that braided lines on rear may not be
    a good idea.

    Hi list,

    I have had rear braided lines for a while now on the shelf waiting.

    Ive got braided up front with the stop-tech's and now with the factory rears 
    looking haggard, they need to be replaced.

    In speaking with a couple heads at s-fest, it was suggested that for the
    rears, abrasion against the rear could be a problem.

    So id like to hear what some lister's have to say with their pro/con 
    experience with stainless braided for rear lines.

    thanks.
