Are they the same diameter as the standard ones and more to the point is there any issues using them on internal routed cables?

They are thicker eternally, so can make internal routing a bit of a pig.

Thicker and less bendy and can get a bit of a twist on them. Look nice but I wouldn't bother again.

Do people still fit the braided hoses? I had them fitted about 10 years ago but never saw any performance advantage. I should imagine on modern internal routing they would be a right pain

They’re 6mm, instead of 5mm. I think goodridge do them at 5mm, without the plastic coating, but if you use that, be sure to protect your frame, as they will destroy it.
