After the system is bled, can one install the funnel on the top of the STI, fill it with some of compatible mineral oil, and squeeze the lever repeatedly to remove any air that has migrated up to the lever as one would do with a Shimano system?
Nice kit. You’ve thought of everything. Is this a new product? I built my own kit 5-6 years ago or I’d just buy this one. The plunger and reservoir holder are nice features!!!
@@skvedo This isn't a matter of "Campagnolo being different" because 10 mm is no standard. SRAM for example has used three different thicknesses in their road brakes, none of which is 10 mm. I have the Campagnolo bleed block, and it measures exactly 10.50 mm. With a narrower block you get a little bit more oil in the system, but I don't really know if this is a problem or not. But if you have Campagnolo brakes I would get the correct bleed block. It's not that expensive. Other than that one detail, I think Park Tool's bleeding instructions are superior to Campagnolo's.
For mineral oil-based brakes, only use their original fluids. Different manufacturers have different mineral oil blends. It's not standardised like DOT fluid.
Excellent video. The clearest most concise instructions I’ve seen for Campagnolo disc brakes. I’m going to buy one of the PT kits.
Babe, new Calvin Jones video just dropped

Gr8 vid, as always👍‼️👍Going to do my 1st DIY on Ekar brakes this week🤞🤞
Hi. If I can ask. You say "Install the 10mm bleed block" but the video shows a 12mm.
Which is correct?
The block is double sided. The 10mm side is inside. The 12mm side is sticking out, so you can read the 12mm.
@@parktool Campagnolo documents states that original bleed block is 10,5 mm thick. Seem like typical Campagnolo thing to be different.

Question: will Shimano hydraulic oil work in a Campagnolo hydraulic brake system?
For mineral oil-based brakes, only use their original fluids. Different manufacturers have different mineral oil blends. It's not standardised like DOT fluid.
Yes. Mineral oil is mineral oil. No matter what the colour additive, they all have the same viscosity.
Excellent video. BTW, what is S and L? what does it mean?
Pretty sure it’s Short and Long - ie for reach
Is this vid applicable to Ekar brakes? T U!
Yes it is.
Are you ever going to make a series on headsets? It's only bike component you haven't touched yet.
We will get there at some point!
