Sorta on the same subject, I remember a comment that Stu Ritter made on the Ritter-Easley list a few yrs. ago. He indicated that if you wanted a firm brake pedal to use steel brake lines. I may stand corrected, but I believe this type is what's referred to as braided. The std. lines swell over time and lose pressure. The metal variety seem to do a better job of holding it.
