Further to my order of new discs and pads (LCR) last week I forgot to ask about braided hoses. Do you recommend these as part of uprating the brakes :shrug: and if so do you do them?

Also, is the largeport Evoshield for the LCR (210)? If so, I'd like one of these with associated gaskets please.

Cheers

I do a braided hose for brembo's yes, but unless your stock hose is suffering ballooning or damage I doubt there would be much gain to be felt. (A few guys are running these and could confirm what they think, but thats my take on things with std OE LCR hoses being internally reinforced already)

LCR is smallport, in which case I have the insulator gaskets but not EVOshield kits as such.

Didn't realise OE hoses were already reinforced. I'll stick with them for now in that case and see how they fare with new discs etc on upcoming track day

I'd deffo like an Evoshield so can you order one in please? What sort of wait am I looking at?
