Re: Hel vs goodridge bradded lines?
I use Hel, no real reason other than i couldn't fault the first set i bought so i bought the same again .. did buy a set of goodridge lines but they have plated banjo's not SS and havent aged very well.. they were cheaper though.

I have goodridge fitted to mine and no complaints from me either!! They've faired well in the weather too - it only comes out if the sun is shining!!!

Re: Hel vs goodridge bradded lines?
Got a set of earls on at the minute just to upset the applecart
I am changing them sometime though to a set of goodridge ss ones as the earls are blue anodised, (already have the goodridge in the garage hung up just havent got around to fitting them yet

Re: Hel vs goodridge bradded lines?
Unlikely to be any difference performance wise but the HEL kits seem nicer. For example on one of the kits I got it actually came with rubber mounting blocks pre-fitted to the line[1], a nice touch that I've never seen from any other kits.Spike16 wrote:what the difference between the two as there's a £20 difference in the kits, and which do people recomend?
The HEL kits also come with stainless banjo bolts and copper washers.

[1] Normally you have to either cut them off the old line, fit P clips or run without.

I've used both in the past and IMHO there is nothing in it.
