    Reservoir size

    Hi all, was looking at the tilton reservoirs and noticed they have short and standard heights. What are the pros and cons of the short ones - is it that it will have to be filled up more often when bleeding, or is there something more technical? Cheers.

    topping up when bleeding is pretty much about it, although it has to be said if you have very large 6 piston calipers you may want a bigger reservoir otherwise the fluid may run dangerously low when pads are getting low

    Cheers graham, cp4567 on front and small 2 pots on back so that shouldn't be an issue. Might go for the shorter ones then, every bit helps when it comes to packaging and weight.
