Brake Lines: Kevlar vs. SS

Ok, didn't find much conversation about them in the search.

Are there distinct advantages? Who uses the kevlar?

There doesn't seem to be a big difference in price. Approx $63 for Goodridge Kevlar, and $47 for Goodridge SS.

Thanks.


Erik

Go to 188fastlap.com on the bottom of the page click on brakeline facts. There is some good information there and your questions are answered.

1888fastlap.com some good info. Sort of a sales pitch, but at least they answered my question in their faq.

Thanks for the link.

Looks like I'll be looking at SSB brake lines. Maybe even their 2.5mm
