    As I originally said that these lines are ADR approved as they appeared to be the same as UAS's I thought I should go and have a look into it.

    According to the NCOP for brake modification the the relevant ADR's that may be effected by brake modifications are ADR 7 and ADR 42. The NCOP does not state anything in regards to the repolacement of brake lines other than you can't replace them with copper lines and you can't braze them together.

    See here

    ADR 7 has been discontinued as it has been incorporated into ADR 42. I'm not sure what ADR 7 used to state as it was removed in 2003 and I can't find any copies online.

    ADR 42 states:

    Full source here

    I am reasonably confident that anything manufactured by Goodridge would conform to BS and SAE standards.

    I'll put it this way, I would use these lines without a second thought.

    blue32zx The answer is 42

    thanks for that info crispy

    but as far as i am aware, if they dont have a tag on them to say they are adr aproved, then wont u just get hammered bu cops if they spot em? or what aboput insurance reason then? grrr:mad:

    It notes only that they must comply with one of the standards, if any one of those standard does not require the lines to be tagged then it is irrelevant.

    The lines have some sort of identifying tag on them, can't quite tell what it says from this picture though...

    No anti-whip collars though and definately don't appear tagged like the ones in John's pic

    Rob, please supply the relevant legislation that states that they must, I can't find any reference to it. This could have been in the old superceded ADR 7.

    There is no way that Goodridge lines don't comply with one of the standards as they would have had a hand in writing them...

    Possibly. When doing the last group buy info from the supplier (so the importer, not UAS) was that to comply with ADRs the lines MUST be tagged with the specs that they were manufactured to.

    More info

    I posted this in another thread a little while back, exact cut and paste from the Aussie importer of goodridge

    For lines to be ADR compliant they need to be made from coated braided line not bare, be fitted with anti-whip collars and be mark when made with the manufacturer, date produce and the standard they have been made too, all of which Goodridge have.

    These ones have no anti-whip collars and no markings.
