Go with the 1L

After buying about 4 of the smaller bottles over the past couple years, I realized it made a lot more sense to pony up and buy the 1L, even though I only do a full bleed every 6-9 months. Definitely a better economical choice, and you don't have to be as stingy with your bleeds as you do with the small bottles. As others have noted, this stuff works well and is the only thing I'd put in my XT brakes. One odd thing, however, is that this bottle was shipped with less than 1000ml in the container: I didn't see any signs of leakeage in the packaging, so am thinking this might be a common issue.

Bought the big jug so I always have it handy....mineral oil based brakes are the only choice for me...DOT fluid is not as user friendly.
