Aren't you an engineer??

I think the lines are all steel actually. And yes you are correct, but they don't need anymore bite or the front end is gonna lock up.

right right, initial friction is improved more by chging ur pads. The SS lines prevent expansion in the lines.

I put steel lines on 2 bikes and 2 cars, and noticed no improvement at all.

IMO, the rotors, pads, and master cylinder design makes much more of a difference.
