    umm, ok.

    From my experience, SS braided hoses work a treat, it's just that their longevity is a joke. SS braid wrapped by a plastic like outer.
    This plastic outer layer hardens, brittle's & then cracks after 2 or 3 years. It leaks brake fluid all over the place.
    Not just a one off, but has happened to 3 different brake lines I have used over the years.
    So after 2 or 3 years, you're back to square one.
    Don't know if really expensive name branded ones are any better.



    You were talking about cost?

    I was more concerned about safety.
