Review on Pressure Bleeding Capacity Replacement Extractor by John Banks

Revainrating 2 out of 5

2 main problems with brake bleeders

So the pump itself works (it's 2 stars not 1) The first problem is the adapter that attaches to the brake reservoir. The threads are correct but the adapter is too deep so it pushes against the top of the tank before the rubber washer can seal the air causing the air to come out and the liquid to come out in bubbles. The second problem is that the key that comes with it cannot be carried. Adapter (hose connector is in the way. The third major problem is that the bottle used to drain the liquid has NO air outlet. So after pumping for a while (I used a pedal as the pump couldn't be connected), it will begin to push AIR back into the caliper (because the pressure in the balloon increases as fluid is dumped into it).

Pros
  • Brake bleeder
Cons
  • Hard to tell
