AdamR28 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 We can do them, but they make the brake feel sluggish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niconj Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Goodridge has all the parts you need. It's expensive though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 And the bore is still small, which still makes the brake feel sluggish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niconj Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 So Goodridge housings for HS33 aren't recommendable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 They work fine, but as Adam said they just make the brake pretty sluggish. I reckon a lot of people who have issues with cross-overs would probably be better off getting a splitter and doing some better brake routing (i.e. the usual thing of having the splitter under the downtube, then having the hoses leading to the cylinders wrapping around the seat stays so your hoses are always close to the frame). You'll get better brake feel and reduce the chances of damaging your hose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
