I'm fed up of cheap bleed kits & there are some deals on this currently.

I have Formula Cura brakes, can anyone confirm there are fittings in this kit to bleed these?

I've also considered the Jagwire Elite kit, can anyone offer a comparison?

Pretty sure the Jagwire will be good quality, I’ve got some of their hydraulic hose tools and they’re ace. I use the SRAM pro bleed kit which is great quality and I think will fit as the bleed port is the same thread pitch but I’ve not verified this.

Why not go with the Formula bleed kit ?

Yes, the BKM-1.2 will work with Formula Curas.

I got the jagwire elite after a couple of cheap kits and there is a world of difference.  It's so much easier with a nice kit.  It's still not perfect though as one of the syringes stopped fitting the attachments properly after about a year but it's still tight enough to work.  The Park Tool one would be tempting but the price is just a little high for me

Thanks all. @noltae I have the Formula kit, that's what prompted me to look at premium alternatives.
