| Having some trouble with bleeding my motocross bike brakes up. I have tried all the usual ways of doing it. So if anyone could lend me a proper bleeding tool wether it be a compressor fed one or not would be appreciated, obv I will pay/issue beer in return for its use.

Chris, push the piston all the way in, the larger area behind is normally an arse to bleed.
Gravity bleed all the way mate.
