Review on πŸ”§ Enhanced Brake Bleeding Solution: Russell Speedbleeder OEM44146/48 R40526 by Isaac Morales

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent bloodsuckers! Best Parts

It's Great! This is the only option if you are working with hydraulic brakes and do not need a second person to operate the brake pedal. I installed them on both of my Harleys and it was easy to do. A word of caution. Use a hex socket wrench when removing old fittings to avoid rounding flat surfaces. Because sometimes they are quite difficult to unscrew. I would also use penetrating oil on them if I had to do it again. Now the reason for the 4 stars: There was a thick thread sealant on the vent thread that ran to the end of the thread. Not good because on the Harley the caliper body is aluminum and it would be very easy to tap the threads when installing new bleeders. So I had to turn (clean) the first 3 bleeder threads to make sure I wasn't twisting them when I screwed the bleeder tubes into the caliper body.
