1) Did you chamfer the pipe ends before insertion?
2) Why two adjustable bends (One I can understand but it would be better with a 135/45)?
3) Any leak is not great especially when you're laying in new pipework.
Blimey - talk about editing your original post!
The usual causes for a leak will be that the pipe end wasn't chamfered (enough) / the spigot was pushed into the socket with no lubricant / the pipe isn't square / the seal has been displaced
I'd try to lose at least the second adjustable - can't see why you don't run straight into the chamber
I would never use one of those adjustable bends. I've seen them come apart not long after being buried.
I'd remove them and buy a selection of decent fitting from somewhere like Travis Perkins, you can get 45, 30, 15 and 11degree bends and they never leak.
Is it leaking on those adjustable bends. iirc they are directional.
Which is your nearest Travis Perkins?
They are leaking because you've fit them the wrong way round.
