Brake bleed nipples ??

<< < (2/3) > >>

cb750stu:
Just managed to get the bleed nipple out of my rear caliper which was rounded and solid,I built up a wall of Blu Tak around the nipple so the nipple was sitting in a bath of Freeway (great stuff) most of the day,i ended up using a Torx socket for my ratchet i just hammered it into the hole so it was solid & tight then attached my ratchet and gently turned and low and behold it came free well chuffed i really didnt want to go through the hassle of using a repair kit,

The rear bleed nipple is larger than the 2 front ones i thought they would be the same ??

Dont know if this is a useful tip or not ??

Stu !!!

Bryanj:
Front 45224-579-013 £6.95
Rear  43352-568-003 £3.50

Both in stock at Dave Silver, even does a cheaper repro for the front one

Waggles:
2 front ones? the F1 only had a single disk as standard, do you have twin disks?

cb750stu:
Yeah it came with twin disks a good upgrade done by a previous owner

Cheers

Waggles:
Something I have thought off after my recent ride! ( see my other discs topic! ) but I have an aversion to comstar wheels, are yours comstar, alloy or spoked? just wondering what would be the best fit. Mind you, I have newly rebuilt stainless steel front wheel, don't really want to junk that
