I've always used speedbleeders with 100% success. Bleed brakes at just about every event for 5 years. Proper size for stock calipers is SB10125.

richard, did you buy 4 brakebleeders and leave them on your brakes in place of the stock bleeder screws? or did you buy one that you transfer from corner to corner for bleeds?

You need one for each caliper . I also ordered the bleeder hose+bag thing, but instead of using the bag they provide, I take a plastic water bottle or similar and drill a hole in the cap for the silicone tube, plus another tiny breather hole. That way you can easily empty the bottle as needed. If you can find a similar soft tubing that's all you really need.

p.s. I see on their ordering page that they sell the tubing alone.
