Very interesting website on the speedbleeders but there is one part on the
bleeding process with these little jewels that I don't understand or am
overlooking. It says that this allows for a one person operation of
bleeding brakes, right? It also says to open the bleeder valve and then
pump the brakes until there is no more bubbles coming out. How can I see
that there is no more bubbles if I'am in the cab pumping the brakes?
