Stainless steel flexi brakelines

Post by futbus »

Anyone had problems fitting them? I fitted a set from a well known supplier and the threads on the females are too deep, lucky i have the tools to make fit. just wondered if anyone else had same problem.

What's wrong with good old fashioned copper?

Did you not have a 'pattern' for your female fittings then?

What tools did you have to make them fit? a bench grinder perhaps?

I had the same problem on mine, had to ditch the metal clips and make alternatives
