brake lines
 

I am going to be swapping out some brake lines to SS lines. Galfer or Spiegler?

I was thinking of going a little squidish and getting red ones to add a little life to the all black and silver scheme.

I use galfer and happy. Never tried the other.

Do you know how to swap em out? I haven't done it.

Nope I had a buddy do it, kyle knows how if we can get him one weekend.

drain fluid, remove, replace, re-bleed, check for leaks, go ride, check for leaks, done deal. simple

I put Russell SS brake lines on my GS back in 1982. Back then I switched to silicone fluid, DOT 5, which was the best available. The lines still work great, and I've changed the fluid occasionally. Still use silicone and now it's purple-colored.

My buddy has Spiegler lines. They are fine. Front and back shouldn't take more than a couple hours.

thanks all. I think Galfer is what cyclegear carries so probably go with that. Might have to wait a couple weeks since I'll be gone next weekend and can't loose the bike for a day

Mine came with SS lines. :idk:

awesome... my state comes with twisty roads :lol:
