Nipples

[bludclot]

i have found with both my blue spot bikes that the nipples weep unless done up way too tight for my mechanical sympathy. the service book says 6nm but i think that's a serious under estimate.


i also fit new bleed nipples as a matter of course when dismantling calipers or changing fluid as they seem to seal better. it shouldn't make any difference i know, it's just what my experience has shown me.
