brake lines??
ok--ran into a kinda major issue today at rausch--
i snapped a brake line right in half(passenger rear)--another member came to the rescue and helps with the repair, but here's our question:
Is there a way to cap the brake line(or terminate if you wanna think like an engineer). i could limp home on 3 brakes. is there a way to stop the bleeding on a brake line?
thanks
steve

vice-grip the line folded over itself and drill a screw into the end. tap and zip-tie to whatever you can. drove about 100 miles home on a high altitude highway without an issues....other than a slight pull to the left when braking. solution - bring extra brakelines on trail rides.
