Hi guys,
Has anyone had trouble with the rear brake bleeder, as since i have changed the fluid there has been a small leak from the bleeder area.On inspection there is a small crack accross the bottom face of the bleeder where the steel ball is meant to locate allowing the fluid to pass through the threads. Has anyone replaced the bleeder and ball with an original item or has anyone tried the normal tapered seat bleeder in the Grimeca caliper.

Problem solved -- BSA Regal £10 and no more leaking nipples, result.
