Brake line question

  • j

    I am extending the brake line on my 2004 aero because I got the TJBC fork extensions and taller handle bars.  I purchased brake lines for the 2001-2007 Spirit from TJBC in the length I need. The fittings look the same and the length is correct.  My question is will it work ok? Are there other considerations I need besides proper length and fittings?

    @jeremybrown.inc im not sure what youre questioning here? you got the new line, just install and bleed the system, make sure you get all the air out of it or youll have mushy or nonexistent brakes LOl

    Yeah, haha, my thinking was "what if the aero line is wider, and there won't be enough volume of fluid inside to push the pads??"  Then right after I posted the question my brain caught up and realized how hydraulics actually work. Sorry me dum.
