yeah was such a PIA to do with spanners!! they should almost come with a 3/8 and two attachments for an extra 20 bucks!
got braided lines on the front brakes (ap racing bbk) but rear is stock. it has been proven that braided lines do little for feel in pedal though. can't be bothered to find it but there is a good article somewhere on the net that tested shitty 15yr old rubber lines vs new braided lines and the expansion was 1.5% more in the rubber vs the braided at around 3 times max pressure of the average braking system or something like that. in any case though i have not had a chance to test the stopper properly so right now it just looks kinda cool!
