I just receieved my braided brake lines from Austreetfighter

Im going to fit them this weekend.

Does anyone have a reccomendation for brake fluid?
or are they all much the same?

i remember in a thread recently someone was talking about different brake fluids but i cant remember who wrote it or which thread i saw it...

plus i am at work and i am meant to be working - not searching through threads

any DOT5 fluid would do the job
brand is your choice

head down supercheap and use whatever you like to fill and bleed them through

ride it a few times as you may still have air in there ,

then if you want to change to the $25 Motul then go for it , you wont waste it and will prob be lucky to use half a bottle , share the other half with another bike or a mate

good idea if you know the colours of the fluids ( different fluids have different colours) makes it easier to bleed through
