Default Sylvains Brake Lines

just got these today and man....are they exquisite or what
they really are a work of art and I can't wait to get to the stage of fitting them
the fittings are all stainless in kind of a gunmetal colour with stainless over braid on the pipe then covered in a transparent red plastic covering.
I cannot recommend Sylvain enough and a price comparison with what you can get in this country he still comes out on top because the A1 quality is there.
top man Sylvain Top man

Kev
Have you bought a full set of lines as Sylvian suggests on his website? I.e a braided line down the tunnel and braided lines direct to the back drums? If so can you give me the lengths then i can ask Sylvian for an idea of cost.

Cheers
Ken
