Awesome anchors.

The Blade had a service yesterday and I asked the bloke to fit braided hoses

I expected some sort of improvement but I must admit that I'm astonished by
the result. Admittedly the service included new pads but the performance of
the front stoppers is nothing short of incredible. It's so effective I can

I didn't bother with the back because I so rarely use the back brake but I'm
tempted to fit them to see what happens.

or not.

Your local dealer will probably stock kits or can make them up for you.
