Yep, I've got one of their Avid Bleed kits and it's done the job just fine on numerous occasions. The only bit that was a bit rubbish was the use of rubber loops (to hold the hoses when you fold them to lock them off) instead of proper clamps, which from the looks of the pic on that link they have now changed.

I've got an original bleed kit that seems to have given up. Anyone know where I can get replacement syringes of height size with the screw in bits?

I've got one of the red dog bleed kits and it works a treat.

(and yes, they do now come with proper hose clamps)
