Default Brake bleeding, thanks Gunson

Prob a re-post but thought I would share my experiences

Just fitted new discs, pads, rear callipers and carriers to the cq, tried to bleed them the "taditional way" but just did not work after an hour of pumping !!!,
so got the Gunson brake and clutch bleeder out, used a FULL SIZE SPARE WHEEL for the air as the space saver seems to run down to fast. SET TO 10-15 PSI
Left the bottle empty and just kept an eye on the brake resivior and filled after each calliper was bled. SORTED
Very good device, flushed the whole system while I was at it so good for another 2-3 years.

Thanks to Pete at quattro corner for the super fast postage for the brakes, all arrived next day
Thanks to Gunson for making a nasty 2 man job in to a simple 1 punter doddle.

Thats me nearly ready for Doune !
