I need opinions on running the brake/fuel vent lines as per the pictures.

I am using Nylaflow tubing from the master cylinder all the way to the brake calipers. The idea is to run them inside the alu tube in order to be able to service them (ie remove them) once the gear legs are covered with fabric.

On that note, what is the general consensus on using fabric vs thin alclad sheet to cover the gear legs?

Thanks.
