Hi

Can anyone recommend a one man operating brake bleed kit that works well please? It's either me on my own or with the help of my wife and toddler.......this option doesn't work well :-)

Thanks

I have two types, a pressure one - Ezi Bleed and a vacuum one. The easiest one is the Ezi Bleed one but you do need to let some air out of your tyre to avoid having the pressure too high. The vacuum hand pump one I have found is no where near as good - I find that it draws air in through the threads of the bleed nipple at the same time as the fluid making it take longer and you can't tell if there is any air still in the system. Waste of money !
