Neat device but it won't tell if air bubbles trapped in the line? I guess you must feel that.

After 3 years/ 30K miles of ownership I finally got to flush and bleed the lines with Motul 600 and was amazed how easy to lock up front tires now!

I used 1.5L of fluid for pressure bleeding and pretty confident that rear are fine.

In fact I thought by design brake force is biased to front so that rear never lock up before front...
