Has anyone used flex head flare nut wrenches on the brakes? Are they better, worse or no different than non-flex head ones?
I need to buy an 11mm (for the brake line into the caliper) and 8 mm (for the speed bleeders) and thought I would ask before I bought anything. Thanks! |

When it comes to new tools, the right answer is always "both".
