Okay ... my disc brakes are all getting a bit stiff so was thinking of buying some but how much for a bit of plastic!

The said disc brakes are Magura Louise FR and Hope Mini and Hayes ... arrghhhh ...

The Hope C2 however need not need any bleeding at all even after so many years.

Anyone knows where to get the bleeding nipples for the Magura Louise FR?

Hope Mini = a bit of tube (£1.00?)

As above hopes don't need a kit - DIY is the way 🙂

Pretty much the same as Mini's except the flop-flop lever

Hopes, tube as above into old water bottle. Does tend to be easier if brake is off the bike.
