braided brake lines?

Does anyone know if the ek9 come with braided brakes lines as standard?

Done an inspection of my brakes today and the pipe coming to the caliper was braided .

Re: braided brake lines?

as mentioned they are a worthwile upgrade if you are upgrading the rest of the braking system, quite a nice find!

the importers noticed when undersealing my dads FD2 that it's come with Mugen braided hoses, retail at like £250!!! lucky find...
