Thanks a lot for the info, demon and twpd!

I'll continue using DOT 5.1 after all, then. I guess the slight discolouration I see over time is the result of water and UV-light but I'm not going to worry about it as I am replacing the "old" fluid with fresh fluid regularly.

FWIW, dunno if it helps you feel better but, I change the fluid in my race bike after every race meeting. It's cheap after all - not suggesting you do that but once every 6 months is a good measure for keep everything tip top.
