Aluminum brake lines down there do make a lot of sense, and might have better bend radii to do a loop or something...worth a try. One of those lines has a pretty severe angle on it where it enters the fitting. That'll teach you to post photos! I will say that I have something like 4000 landings between my KR2S and KR2, both with Nylaflow lines, and I haven't had a problem. I often do 6-10 touch and goes at a time, but I'm sure they cool off between landings.
