• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

My OEM front brake line has seen better days so I'd like to replace it with an aftermarket one. Has anyone been down this road already and recommend a brand and length?
 
Galfer and EBC make very good brake lines. I would recommend measuring what you have and possibly adding an inch or two if you plan to lift the bars or anything--I wish I had slightly longer brake lines after adding bar risers. You could also call a dealer like Halls for the length... I live in NC, and still read out to them even though they are halfway across the country. They tend to be extremely helpful with parts.
 
If you have a hydraulic shop in town just have them make you one. Thats the route i went when i did my fork swap. Was about $45 for a red one. Just bring the old one in, if you want it longer let them know. if you want to get it from somewhere else, spiegler is hands down imo the best brake line company. Lifetime warranty.
