Why are they so small?? Given the misery they cause across the whole industry, corroding, snapping, stripping, rounding off. Wasting god knows how many perfect calipers in the process. I've just swapped the clutch slave, it had a 7mm hex bleed screw. Nothing!

So why the small size? Dare I suggest a conspiracy in manufacturing something that's guaranteed to fail?

Got to say I have had the same thought for years myself.

Get a pair of decent molegrips on the main bit and give it a tap or two that will help.. funnily enough I'm up your neck of the woods doing this....

A bit of experience and technique and you’ll never break another, they rarely get used until stuffs 30 years old, end of life innit , wd40 , heat, tap, cool, wd40 wait , tap , heat, gentle tickle it undone
