Manny from Team Outermost's Hand Brake Setup

Re: Manny from Team Outermost's Hand Brake Setup
I've got my clutch master cylinder on the way and a new rear brake master cylinder (so if i F up tapping it i still have a brake) on the way now all i need is the lines. Where do you guys get your lines. I don't wanna spend $100 on a friggin brake line. I don't really see the point in getting braided unless its cheap, i know it doesn't expand like a rubber line but eh, all my other lines are rubber, including the one from the rear mc to the caliper so i don't see the reason for braided. Where can I buy this stuff at a reasonable price?

If you put a double banjo bolt the hydraulic pressure from the handbrake would end up going to the bottom reservoir & not put pressure on the caliper.

could i plug the hole on the master cylinder wear the bottom reservoir connects??? would just the handlebar mounted reservoir be able to supply the whole system???

only way to do it is like manny did. Otherwise fluid is pushed back up the res tube. GPtechs is basically like mannys but not ghetto. Or you could do like me and some others and just tap the hole where the old res connected and then put a fitting in there, just as good as gptechs.

Oh if you plug it with something it will prolly blow off!!! There is a lot of pressure there!!

www.fullthrottleinc.net talk with Bill he has a nice setup. Maybe tell him that Manny said he would give you a deal instead of the $200 he wants of which is worth it. He is gonna be selling a whole setup with a 1 finger lever. Talk to him. Go to his site & call him
