Flexi brake pipes

[drury318]

Does anyone know of an online source of info regarding flexi pipes, i.e. length, fittings etc? I ended up picking through a suppliers stock to find suitable rears for my roadster & didnt fancy my chances of finding longer ones for the fronts. Failing that, does anyone have the part no. & dimensions of any hoses they have used for the fronts?
Thanks, Dennis

Sorry I cant remeber who or where, but I think 500mm was used as a length for the hoses.

Just bought my hoses from a place I found online.

Made all four hoses to 500mm long, with bulkhead fittings on both ends of rear. Fronts had bulkhead fitting one end with caliper fitting at the other.

All braided hoses, look really nice. Had them delivered next day.

Place was called Hose Solutions 01392 811601 speak to Ben, £54.95 inc vat & delivery.

See attached pic.

Cheers

Just had a look at the invoice for mine from GT Hydraulics on Tyneside and all the bits came to £60 inc vat and postage but this is for make your own re-usable ends and fittings inc 3 mtrs braided hose.

£50-£60 for flexible brake lines sounds rather a lot for a budget build.
there was a thread saying about wich rubber ones you can use you could prob get them all for £20 if you knew which ones to buy.
yes i know the stainless braided ones are better and look prettier but it comes at a price
