When bleeding a Mini, what size block?(3 posts)

When bleeding a Mini, what size block?mikzim

As per directions in manual, they say take the pads out and put a block in there place to avoid contaminating the pads. What is the exact mm thickness of a block that Hope specifies to ensure perfect spacing throughout bleed operation?
Thanks

it's not rocket science, just measure how wide the gap in the caliper is and cut a little chunk of wood to go in there.

...wedge a Park tire lever into the caliper in between the pads when doing bleeds on the Mini's. Seems to work pretty well for me so far.
