Default Speedbleeders

If you dont have them, get them! They make bleeding your brakes not only easier, but also helps get more air out of the lines because its so much quicker!

They sure do look handy as hell. Although I have NO idea where they'd go. I'll ask my mechanical savvy friends if I need them =P

look on your calipers. look for a little metal nipple looking thing. that's a bolt that plugs and closes the brake lines, to keep the fluid in. these speed thing replace those bolts. as in, you unscrew the stock one, and screw the new ones in.

best thing since sliced bread as far as I am concerned. and, they encourage you to flushyour brakes atleast once a season like you should. and bleed them often, takes like 10mins.

by far best $12 I ever spent on my bike

Yep....I bleed whenever I need better lever feel. It makes 1 man bleed jobs easy. And since I do about 2 sets of brake pads a year, I clean my brake pistons and bleed too.

Select what brand calipers you have.

I agree, these are the best things to buy. Who knew bleeding brakes would be so easy.
