SRAM Level TLM/Ultimate Bleed blocks /w different widths for better lever feel

Different width Sram Level TLM/Ultimate bleed blocks (part.no. 11.5015.014.090).

The bleed block comes with multiple sizes:

*12mm(default) - Use when bleeding brakes which afterwards will use new pads *11mm - Use when bleeding brakes which afterwards will use used pads or new pads but you want a more "stiffer" level feel. *10mm - Use when bleeding brakes which afterwards will use very used pads

Why different sizes?

For SRAM brakes that don't have a contact-point adjust I wasn't able to get lever feel I wanted. Contact-point adjusts essentially reduces the total system volume, making the brakes feel better, as I can't adjust that the only way is to increase the amount of fluid in the system when the pads get worn down. But found out that the default bleed block is too wide and I'm unable to "overfill" the system. So reverse-engineered the pads in 3 sizes - 1 default and 2 narrower depending on lever preference or the amount pad material left.

Note: If you overfill the system when changing to new pads with more material you will need to remove a tiny amount of fluid from the system. Luckily it's very easy and cleanly done by unscrewing the lever bleed screw for a very tiny amount to let some fluid out. Just prepare a napkin to catch the fluid.
