    For bleeding SKX brakes. What size do I ask for when I pop into the chemists (I'm assuming that strolling in and asking for a syringe with a bit of tubing for bleeding brakes will be met with a blank stare!)

    Thanks

    Might struggle to find 1 big enough in a chemists, try a vet, 50-100ml is prob best.

    50ml is about right for brake bleeding. As long as it fits your tube it'll be fine otherwise.

    I used these people and the delivery/price was pretty good.

    Go to vets and ask for the one they use to inseminate cattle…it's a big 'un but should satisfy all your bleeding needs!

    For motorbike brakes I use 60ml ones but for pushbikes that's a heck of a lot of fluid, I use 20ml ones for that.
