Brake bleed kit - Tektro M285
We have a 2018 Trek Marlin 5 with Tektro M285 brakes that need to be bled.
Can anyone recommend a brake bleed kit that will work with our set up? The official Tektro one looks to be discontinued, thanks.
If you're asking why they need to be bled, the answer involves a young teenager, a set of hex keys, and 'curiosity'...

I have no idea if there is a difference year to year. All I'm seeing in searches is that the official Tektro bleed kits are discontinued.
Trying to get a hold of my LBS right now is a fool's errand, they're just not answering their phone or responding to emails."
I've never done a brake bleed before, so I'm not sure what kits work with what set ups.
