Why upgrade to braided brake lines & cables?

Superior Performance and Precision Control

When it comes to braking performance, every detail matters. Standard rubber brake lines tend to expand under pressure, especially as they age, which can lead to a soft or “spongy” feel at the lever. Braided stainless steel brake lines eliminate this issue by maintaining their shape even under extreme pressure. The result? A more consistent braking response, greater stopping power, and a firmer, more predictable feel. Riders instantly notice the difference — improved modulation, sharper control, and confidence that their brakes will respond exactly as expected, every time.

Durability That Outlasts the Ride

Beyond performance, braided brake lines are built to last. The stainless steel outer braid protects the inner Teflon core from UV exposure, abrasion, and general wear and tear that can weaken standard rubber hoses. This makes them ideal for both street and performance riders who demand reliability in all conditions. Whether you’re carving through corners or cruising long distances, braided lines maintain peak performance for years — a smart investment in both safety and longevity.

Performance upgrades don’t have to stop at your brakes.
