It's the fact that the Goodridge brake lines are thinner and don't expand (losing pressure) that are the 'plus points', surely?
The brake fluid is forced into the brakes quicker - therefore making the brakes more effective by being able to work sooner.

Nope, the walls of the rubber hose are thicker but internally they are the same. |
The braided hoses look so much better than the rubber ones [and not likely to be cut by vandals/chavs/jealous rivals etc]  |
They're probably lighter too, meaning you go faster

From memory there was only Silver and Red available from Goodridge.
When I ordered mine (silver) red was 'out of stock'

Exactly, I'd only be interested in Red ones and ideally some time after FCS....

I've sent a message to the seller regarding the red hoses and updated the OP.

I'll be interested in a set of these depending when your going to be ordering them. Do you know exactly how much postage will be? Cheers Leigh

I should point-out that it's only the plastic covering [sheath] that is red, not the actual braided brake hoses

There's hope for orange & other colours still, heres the message from seller.
"Hello, yes we can. Please add £4 for each coloured kit"
I've since asked for a list of available colours.
