    Question Anyone used the brake bleeder kits?

    ie the tubing with syringes and 1 way valve kind of setup? does it really make things loads easier and bleeds the air out better? anyone actually use one?

    i've got one its pretty rubbish
    the best way I've found is to get another person and a big fuk off syringe fill it with brake fluid and force the air out takes all of 10 seconds

    they are useless when you use them on your own

    I bought a bleeding kit from gerBay, put the pipe on the nipple with a clip and open the valve. Pump the brakes until firm. I doesnt let air in but lets air escape. Fantastic bit of kit.
