pre-bent brake lines

Don't know if he is still in business, but I bought some pre-bent lines from Doug Reid at 18G Motorworks several years ago, and the lines were a perfect fit.

Haven't ever ordered from theses guys, but their site says they do.

I have; I've used their complete sets on two (2) cars, and I'm very happy with the results.

I used their BN7 non-servo set for my 100/6 with (BN7...) front disc brakes, and their BJ8 set.

The bends are very accurate, but may still require the slightest amount of "massaging" to perfectly line up with the threaded fittings__to me, this is not only acceptable, but expected.

The longest tube (to rear brakes) will arrive bent in half, but it's a very wide-gentle bend, and easily straightened out.

Many years ago when they did my 100/6, they didn't yet have a pattern for the "reservoir to clutch m/c) tube, so I sent them mine to copy, and then in return, they didn't charge me for the tube assembly.

Good people to work with and a great product.
 
I also used Classic tube for my BJ7. Fit very nicely. They do come with a coating but if I had to do it again I'd get the stainless steel.

Classic Tube does not offer a prebent tubeset for the BN6, but do offer one for the BN7. I'm thinking that the BN7 non-servo should fit?
