cut or broke? I broke one while drag racing many years ago. good ridge lines don't have the plastic coating so the internal lines can bubble through the metal netting and over time will rub and break the line... sorry to hear about this though. glad you're ok

broke, I think the side of my wheel/rim was rubbing on the brake line; I thought I made sure the lines were clear of everything but I guess not. I installed them last Oct. and haven't had any problems until last night.

Yeah those Goodridges are pretty crappy. I prefer Stoptech but currently have the Gruppe-S ones. Both have the plastic coating.

You should probably replace all 4 of those lines.
