guys... i wannna say something ok but first i wanna stress that i am not working for any shop nor against any shop.

 

 

abt the steelbrake hose issues..i seriously think that it does not matter. it just the branding and quality wise is almost if not the same. reason for saying this is the use of steel brake hose is for preventing the hose from expending

and from there u get better braking.

 

so since cheap ones does not expand, my prediction is that it will work the same.

 

i recently fitted a steel brake hose to my bike and i tried doing a burnout without stepping on clutch and surprisingly... still can! a part of it (i admit) is due to lowering of forks but without the back up of brake effectiveness... a burnout is impossible.

 

 

i hope my little test/story clears some minds of doubts

 

 

100+ to a $25 thing is worlds apart. even if the 25bucks one is not so good say..1yr thn spoil..it still will be worth it coz i realised not any ppl ride same bikes for more thn 2 yrs.

 

 

BUT it still boils down to own preferrence la...

 

cheers! :cheeky:

ya true, bam bro said is true as long it serve the main purpose

but 1 thing for sure muz make sure the person do a nice bleeding ensure no bubbles!!!

cos previously my R6 wasnt bleed properly thus causing my brake pump spoil actually tot jus pump kit but change 3 time still the same results causing me have to change a full set brake pump not cheap... heart pain wallet big big hole

and if serious case like my friend's his brake wasnt bleed properly thus causing his brake caliper suddenly jam and lock his front brake thus he flip pretty bad crash

so guys be careful k! if u confirm where u wan to fix liao den before fixing check out which mechanic can do a better job den go for it

im getting mine at bikelap for $85 see how many ppl i can jio to go den know wat price i can get...
