Wish I had read the reviews. This metal adaptor messes up the plastic thread on the brake housing. The correct shimano part is plastic. I’m hoping my brake housing is ok. I managed to get the screw cap back on and now awaiting the correct shimano adaptor and have ordered replacement screw cap.
After several Epic purchases I'm afraid this one was a disappointment. Normally the bleed tool threads into a metal insert (SRAM levers) or a metal caliper but in the case of the newer shimano levers the thread is into the polymer body. This means that if anything goes wrong using this adapter it's the lever which gets trashed . I knew as soon as I removed the blanking caps on the lever that something was wrong. The threads on the blanking cap are somehow different to the adaptor. It's not the major diameter or the pitch, but the thread angle or the minor diameter. Simply put, the adaptor simply isn't a smooth fit to the thread in the lever and it was just too risky to use this adaptor on my clients bike. Ironically the genuine shimano adaptor has the same unusual thread as the Epic version and is also an interfering fit in the lever but as the shimano adapter is made from very soft nylon/PA etc there's no risk of ruining your £300 shifter. Clearly shimano know their stuff hence why their metal blanking cap has a different thread to their cheapo adapter.
I had to purchase this adapter after realising that Shimano had altered the thread size on the master cylinder bleed screw for the later model Ultegra system. Epic we’re able to provide this metal bodied adapter which arrived promptly.
Great service and products by Epic...Recommended.
