    For the past few weeks I have been scouring the internet for new brake lines and related parts for my 1983 750 maxim. I only found one suppier that listed a pre-made brakeline kit and it was almost $200. The best thing I've found is cyclebrakes.com. They will custom make the 3 line kit for 129. I am also hoping to find all my brake parts in one place and they seem to have them. If I am overlooking a good supplier, please let me know soon.
    For your reference, here is what cyclebrakes.com has quoted for me.

    3 line custom kit - $129
    front pads - 27.60
    rear shoes - 36.30
    caliper rebuild kit - 15.99
    master cylinder kit - 38.99
    speed bleeders - $10 each (or 2 free with $200 purchase)

    Any advice before I buy is appreciated.

    Brake lines are stainless steel with choice of color or clear coating.
    Kit includes all new hardware.
