Default Internal Brake lines on new handlebars?

Any of you try and run your brake lines inside the handlebars? Wondered if there are any kits or bad experiences?

Default RE: Internal Brake lines on new handlebars?

this is the deal. You must run very small braided SS line inside. This entails making a new M/C as the largest piston will not push the volume to make them stop correctly. If you want it done the bike is for sale & you can have at it. Very expensive and time consuming to say the least. Ya, it can be done but you better have a large machine shop, plenty of talent & many hours.
