Xantia brakes, bleed nipple?
Need to buy some tubing to bleed the brakes with once things are finally back together. What size diameter tube is suitable. Not being able to go anywhere I'm having to order online. Halfrauds have some washer tube in 3/16" and 1/8". I know the nut on the nipple is 8mm but not sure what size tube is a good fit.

Toby, PM me your address and I'll post you the pipe I use.
Got it from B&Q for next to nothing so it's easy to replace.

That's one of the reasons why this forum is so unique and great.Xac wrote:Toby, PM me your address and I'll post you the pipe I use.

I use a transparent pipe which helps to see possible air bubbles flow from the nipple into a jar.
Inner diameter is 5 mm and I guess nearest is 3/16".
