Re: HEL Brake lines

Re: HEL Brake lines
I have Hel's on the front - made to measure, top guys and a quality job - and as said, go out and see them with some cash and they do a nice deal too
I also have a goodridge line on the rear, mainly 'cos it was available and free, and have no complaints about that either

Re: HEL Brake lines
I had a very negative experience with HEL. They made a set of brakelines and forgot to put the holes into the fittings (!!!) - two hours to find out the cause of the problem and the person at Hels office on the phone and by e-mail was rude and unhelpful. really appalling.
They then, grudgingly, promised to send another set of lines.....and forgot.
Needed chasing several more times before anything arrived. Bike was off the road for a week just when the weather was good.
Added cost and hassle... worse thing was their attitude.
Having said this, the product works OK.
Next time it'll be goodridge though!

Was that HEL or one of their franchised dealers that make pipes up ??
