OAP Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I've posted a few topics on here in an effort to come to some sort of conclusion for sorting my brakes. Here's my dilemma... I currently run pre 05 HS33's. These have done me proud and (touch wood) never given me any problems. The only thing about them is the lever length. It's a bit short and i could do with the extra power of a longer lever. I run them with an antifreeze water mix at 70/30. So i've done some asking about (mainly on here) and concluded the following. HS33/11 2011 prone to leak with water bleed. Echo prone to leak with water bleed. My current HS33's with fresh products lever... can't get hold of the chap (todge I think) who makes them. conclusion - replace my lever unit with an 05 HS33 and fit with echo sl levers blades from trialprod. My question is what do you think of my conclusion? I realise some people run the 2011 and echo's with no leaks but i'd prefer not to take the risk. cheers all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I'd keep trying Todge if I were you, or at least hold out 'til someone who knows him comes along to give him a nudge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers JD. If he is still trading them I'm keeping my fingers crossed he has some pre 05 lever blades. I tried using the email feature on here but got no response.

JD™ Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Quick search gives me this, I think the 3rd one will be what you're looking for assuming he has some and/or his email address is on the left hand side of that...
