    Bleeding front brakes - what spanner?

    So what sort of spanner do you use to bleed your front brakes?

    I have spent a few years stumbling through it with both an open end spanner and ring spanner but as the front bleed nipples are recessed none of my spanners will get a particularly good or comfortable grip.

    So what do you use?

    1/4 drive socket to start off, open ender to nip for bleeding, socket for final tightening.

    Thanks. As obvious as that sounds it never really occurred to me to use two tools to do the one job
