Rear brake bleed nipples

PostPost by: pereirac » Sun Jun 28, 2009 8:31 pm

Hi,

Can anybody tell me the correct dimensions and thread for the bleed nipple on the rear of the Elan (Sprint) caliper. Mine sheared off when I tried to remove it :cry: ..

Thanks

I recently installed speedbleeders, which have made bleeding the brakes and clutch an easy one person job. (www.speedbleeder.com) The size I used was SB3824L. Dan
