Hey all...
After a brilliant trip to Brecon and Cwmcarn, My girlfriends Juicy ultimates are feeling as spongy as hell... I run Elixirs on my Cube so I have decided to take the plunge and buy a bleed kit...
But i have seen some on ebay that arent Avid but are only £12 delivered, Are they as good as the avid kit?

I have the genuine kit and have had no issues at all when using it, I have heard problems with the copy kits popping hoses off when put under any pressure.

I have Avid, have had it for 2 years now and never had any issues.
If you can afford it I would go with that, if you can't then
Cant say on the quality of 3rd party kits... although these do look similar97th choice wrote:
minus the bleed blocks which you don't really have to use as you have pad spacers anyway with the brakes.
