Does anyone happen to know what the bleed nipple thread size is on the clutch slave cylinder (transmission end) for an Atom3 ?
I've recently acquired some very nicely made Stahlbus bleeders (thanks to [mention]K20A2[/mention] for the tips) to install on the brakes. I'd also like to get the same thing for the rear slave so that I can do a 'one handed/manned fluid service' without breaking my back, if you'll excuse the pun(s)....
Appreciate any advice or pointers!
Cheers.

Not sure but think it might be M8 x 1.25 ?

Thanks as always John, I read some where else that its M8x1.25 for the K20 generally (or have seen it on a parts diagram maybe) but not sure if it held for the Atom. Will give it a go!
Cheers.

What is the advantage of these bleeders?
Re: More obscure info please!
I think the main advantage is the one man operation for super easy line bleeding or fluid changes. They have a sprung one way relief valve incorporated (separate from the main thread for the bleed nipple) so you get a good fit then bleed without opening and closing the main threads, or introducing any air to the system.
If you have a shop / garage or handy mates / wife etc they maybe little benefit!
...draw your own conclusions from that statement!!
