Silicone hoses, anything between them?

[jack_kemp]

I know the differences are negligible anyway, but is there and reason why some are so much more expensive than others? Just paying for the brand with stuff like samco compared to siliconehoses.com?

Paying for the name imo.

I figured that would most likely be the case. Just wanted to be sure before I click

I bought a set of the forge ones, from what Fred said they don't fit as well as samco.

Don't suppose you know what the price difference is between those and the samco ones?

price doesn't seem the best indicator of quality with this stuff. I can't stand samco's personally, they fit well, but they dont last too great in my experience. Never fitted Forge stuff. SFS is great, Venair is great, Viper stuff is ok but a bit thin

I'm not sure, but £140 rings a bell.
I'll have a look if I can find out.

samco are definatley the best quality, especially when i paid £100 for the full set new
