Russell Cycleflex Brake Hose Kits

How to Stop a Hog

Most riders focus on bike performance – horsepower and torque. But bringing that power to a quick stop is the most important part of riding, and upgrading the brake hose can improve braking performance and lever feel. Russell Performance carries a lineup of Cycleflex Brake Hose Kits to fit metric, cruiser, race, off-road and street bikes.

Russell Performance has been producing fluid transfer products for more than 35 years. Most people are unaware Russell is owned by the Edelbrock Corporation. If you’ve been anywhere near the automotive performance or motorsports industries, you already know Edlebrock is one of the “godfathers” of performance and has been in business for more than 75 years.

Russell Cycleflex

Cycleflex kits incorporate the convenience and reliability of factory assembly for trouble-free installation, requiring no additional components. Their precision double crimp technology ensures permanent end attachment and precise alignment for uncompromised fit. Street Brake Hose Kits are engineered utilizing a PTFE inner liner, supported by a rugged 308 stainless-steel braid. The best-known brand name of PTFE-based material (polytetrafluoroethylene) is Teflon.

Why Stainless is Important

Sure, the new stainless lines will look great, but stainless–steel braid can eliminate brake-hose expansion that factory rubber hoses experience. This results in better braking performance and improved lever feel.
