I have rush hydraulic brakes on my bike and am looking for a kit to bleed them. Local store says only park tools have the adapter. They expect me to buy the expensive tools, buy new brakes or have them do the work.

Do any of you know of an affordable tool set to do the work?

I bought this kit few years back and have been really satisfied with it. Came with bunch of adapters as well. It's not listed anymore by this seller but I bet you can still find it somewhere.

I have the same kit and it’s pretty great for all Shimano-style bleeding (shimano, tektro, TRP and more).

OP if you have a modern SRAM brakes with a bleeding edge port, their bleeding edge tool is a godsend and you can buy it independently of their full bleed kits (and use it with this ez-MTB kit).

I don’t have experience with Hayes, Hope or Magura brakes.
