Works perfectly for Tektro Draco brakes.

Do your research. I thought this would fit my Tektro disc brakes, but it does not (my fault!). You can shove it in sideways and it’ll work... just not ideal. Honestly, I was using folded cardboard before and it was fine.

No point taking away ratings for something I didn't research properly, but these don't seem to fit the road disc calipers - they are too wide. They are the right thickness though - so if you got creative, it would work.The newer road bleed blocks seem to be harder to find. I finally found a couple elsewhere for about the same price - yet to receive them though - so will only know if they fit once I have them.

When you remove a bicycle wheel with a disc brake rotor, the brake pads become vulnerable were you to squeeze the brake lever. By inserting this spacer, the pads will not move, removing the vulnerablility and preventing a bigger problem. This item just makes sense to use.

Used with XT brakes and it worked to do a full bleed.

It's a piece of plastic designed to fit between the caliper and piston....it does exactly that. If you can't get this to fit, than you haven't squeezed your piston in enough.

Worked perfectly for my XT BR-M8000 brakes. So much easier than trying to make one from cut up cards.
