Ser Clutch pipe..... why is it in 3 bits???

dvb668w · Sep 14, 2014

Just wondering why the clutch master to slave cylinder pipe is made up of 3 bits? I just brought the last section only to find the flexi hose needs replacing... Could I just get a Goodridge hose made to replace all 3 pipe sections?

Thanks Andy

flexi allows for vibration though you could use a single copper pipe with a pig tail

Won't that work harden and break? There's quite a lot of movement to take up. I think I'd go for the flexi option.
