Hi
Anyone know where I can braided brake lines with red / blue anodised fittings?
I cant seem to find them on the Earls or Goodridge sites

Anodised = alloy ....
not suitable for road use 
Not safe as the metalic reation between the different metals causes corrosion (expansion) which can cause them to fail

Not to mention them being brittle as crumbly cheese!!

Fred, Stainless is the way to go, You can buy them from Alex at Torques, he also stocks the red & blue anodised stuff.

Genuine Goodridge can be bought here....

I trawl ebay and buy used brake lines then remove & re-use the stainless fittings. Olives can be bought from Merlin for around £1 a piece.

Earls do stainless lines and the red and blue anodised ends.
