To braid, or not to braid, that is the question

After buying some Goodridge hoses and trying to bodge them on without the goodridge connector kit, they are leaking so I'm going to buy a complete kit so that I get all new fittings. But do I stick with normal hope hose for £20 a brake from CRC or do I go for the braided hoses for £27 a brake from CRC. Is it worth paying the extra for braided? Are they really going to make much difference? I've never boiled a brake or anything before, so I don't know if I will gain much extra from it?


Just found that I can get the braided kit for £22 from Winstanleys, but I've never used them before so don't know if they're reliable? I need the kits pretty prono as I'm meant to be going to Cwmcarn on sunday!
