I mainly use tethlon stainless braided lines on the go karts.
You can buy nylon tube, brass fittings and olives, cut to length and then buy some colored fuel line to thread your brake line through, which you can tie to your frame with zip ties.
You can get the nylon tube and fittings on Ebay through some of the go-kart suppliers.
I do the same thing with my throttle cables too.
