After fitting my ecotek valve, my brakes seem a little different to normal. Not terrible, just seems a bit spongy and not as responsive at high speeds.

I know someone said make sure you cut the tube the correct side of that return valve thingy, and i did, but an ecotek valve shouldnt normally affect the brakes..... should it.

one thing im thinking is that i didnt tights up the valve onto the pipes with a jubilee clip. should i do this so that it is 100% air tight?

Any ideas grateful as a bit worried about my brakes!

That eco tec valve dont effect the breaks at all so it aint that maybe u need new pads or something.
