Brake line quick disconnect fittings
Anyone using quick disconnects on their brake system? If so, what brand and do they work well? I can't run drag wheels on the front because of my big brakes, and I'm looking at getting a set of drag brakes and wheels just for the strip. Would take no time at all to swap them on without having to bleed the lines.

Most of your quick disconnects list how much air they "include" when you connect them. It's typically measured in microliters, but with enough brake swapping, you might find that you have to bleed them anyway. I don't know how long it would take to build up enough air, but any air is typically considered "too much", though a small amount might not even be noticed. I'd talk to the coupler manufacturers and see what they think about such a use. I'm going to guess that they have some data on it, or at least some input. Just realize that few, if any, of them are truly perfect when coupled/uncoupled. You will get a very, very small amount of air.
