gs-gsa conversion brake lines.

[vilguy]

woah that was a close call today. Having completed the gs-gsa conversion the other week and putting road rubber back on over the weekend i managed to get away from uni early and went for a hard thrash, hard on the brakes in most places until... f*** me no front brakes at all and brake fluid all over me. As i was ... practising my advanced road riding techniques... i was going a bit quick at the time and on some pretty knarly roads. Thanksfully managed to slow down enough with the back brake and a several stomps down the box.

Turns out the standard brake line had been pulled loose and rotated, the vibration loosening the banjo bolts and the master cylinder depositing its vile contents all over me

All fixed temporarily but im gonna order some slightly longer lines!

Any of you lot who do a similar conversion should be aware that the brake lines are a bit tight!

[vilguy]

its the paint job that hides it... really changes it dont you think

I find its those details like the painted stars on the front wheel which gives it a little Je ne sai quoi!
