I thought I'd take the opportunity provided by miserable weather to bleed to Hoe Mono Minis on my old Marin but found I'd lost the tubing I stick over the bleed nipple to drain the old fluid away. Any ideas where I can buy some more without getting a full bleed kit?
Thanks in advance

Sounds perfect. Ta
Pet shop.Aquarium stuff.
Just open the car bonnet, there'll be plenty under there
I got fed up faffing around with tubing/piping from aquatic centres and DIY stores that didn't fit properly and ended up buying a Hope kit from [url= http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/bigrideracing ]these guys[/url].
Very tidy piece of kit, especially as 1) everything fitted, and 2) the syringe (included) method was the only way I could get the rears to work.
If it's just a length of tubing you need drop us an email with your delivery address and I'll pop you one in our next mail run:

Threw a roll of that away when I moved as it was just too tight.
Aquarium/fishshop, failing that eBay. Airline hose should do the trick, 4mm inner diameter and 6mm outer..although that might be to big for a shimano bleed nipple..

Edit: fits a shimano bleed nipple, just checked it..
The windscreen washer tubing come in 4mm or 5mm sizes - need to get the right size, but it works well when you do.
B&Q also sell a clear plastic pipe which is ideal for bleeding Hope brakes. They sell it by the metre, roll out as much as you want and cut.

I have a couple of the Epic bleed kits, which work well for my Shimano brakes. Nice gesture above.
