Tube Size needed for brake bleeding
 
Hello everyone.

Does anyone know the proper size of tubing to use for bleeding the Akibono sport brakes ?

This would be tubing to go over the bleed nipple and into a bottle (preventing the mess I usually make...)

Thanks!

Not sure. I got the catch bottles with my motive (to further idiot-proof bleeding lol)

Pretty sure any auto parts store will carry them though.

If I remember right, I used a 3/8 clear tube from home depo. Think material is vinyl. Slipped over the nipple (nice and tight) and then, on the suction side, slipped it over a 1/4 to connect to the catch can and then the vacuum pump.

Thanks! I'll give it a shot!
