Just to be contrary (not that I ever am!), I had to extend my front brake line with the buckhorns and Jim's Spacers so I didn't have a choice but to dive in. After changing the line and bleeding (combination of vacuum pump and working the lever), I didn't like the position of the line so I did it again. Took me over an hour and two cans of fluid to get ALL the air out each time. What a major PITA!!!

I got SpeedBleeders recently and of course had to bleed the lines again after installing them. Talk about night and day. It took about 15 minutes to bleed each line.

Granted, if you are changing your lines out, it will take a bit more time. But if I ever have to do that, I will vacuum pump until I get some fluid through, and then SpeedBleed the rest!! Definitely worth the money.....

btw, Brent sells them!!
