Well I've been attempting to bleed my brakes, but kinda hard to do it without the proper yellow bleed blocks. Does anybody know where I can get them? I'm going to give shimano a call later today, I'd prefer to get them online or direct rather than going through my LBS(love them to death, but they are slow w/this stuff sometimes)..

just wedge something that's the same size in there. I know i have a few blocks at home, I can measure them if you really want. Then again, i've just stuck a box end wrench in there before and it did the trick.

also - i think the blocks only come with new calipers.

Yeah, I think that's what I'm just going to resort to.

I've read the blocks only come w/new calipers also.. bummer..

Call around to the local shops. Most shops have more of those little Avid spacers and blocks than they know what to do with. Shimano may be harder to find but if you are persistent I bet you can find something.
