    One could argue that the total fluid volume is lower on the 3 line, but the volume would be minuscule I think...

    Personally I dont think it makes much difference

    I prefer single line down to the right caliper then cross over to the left side but they look ugly on the Kat. look great on the gixxer/r6 etc and keeps weight down

    Im running a 2 line Russel set up seems to work fine.

    My G&J lines are fantastic.

    Don't like the G&J lines huh?

    Thanks. I did search for it, but didn't find anything

    I think I'll be getting 2 line.

    Everything from the best brake pads to use, installing new brake lines,
    swing arm swaps, adjusting your suspension or rebuilding your forks.
    Everything you need to know on those topics and so much more is here.

    Better feel at the lever with the 2 line set IMO.

    Front Brake line - two line vs three line setup

    Are there any differences in performance? Why do they offer two types? I'm looking at the HEL or G&J stainless steel lines.


    EDIT: G&J, not A&G. Don't know where that came from
