  1. Got myself an echo cnc complete lever, been using it for a couple of weeks now, the problem is that when you pull the lever, then release it it doesnt pop all the way back to its starting postion.

    What i need to know is,

    is it the lever piston?

    If so how do I get the piston out the lever?

    Also i read some where that it was better to put a piston from a magura lever in? this true?

    Thanks

  3. Right thanks for the help guys!

    Ive manged to bleed the brake (with water) but still doesnt feel right, ive set the brake up with the pads about 2mm away from the rim. Have to turn the tpa in quite abit, brake works, feels soft and spongey, think its bit weak if you get what i mean. lever comes quite far in aswell.

    Checked for leaks seem to be ok at the moment!

    Does this mean i have air in the tube?

    thanks again!

  4. Having trouble bleeding my magura. Once i bleed the brake and pull on the lever the pads dont move and it is as if there is no oil in the system! Ive used the search.

    Could someone point out my mistakes in the following or give me some tips/hints:-

    Iam going to use Oil.

    The Setup

    Will these work together??

    Echo cnc complete lever

    Standard magura hosing

    Standard magura cylinders (these have been cleaned out)

    Hope braided crossover

    What I did

    Attached clear tube to lever

    Attached clear tube to slave cylinder (tube and syringe already full with oil)

    Pushed oil though system

    Checked for air in clear tube attached to lever

    I was happy that there was no air in tube

    Removed clear tube from lever (when i took the tube off the lever oil came out, but i was unsure weather this was from the tube on the lever)

    Removed clear tube from slave cylinder

    Obvisouly did up the bleed bolt and grub screw.

    As far as iam aware ive done what the wiki said to do!

    Also as iam using a cnc complete lever (grub screw is on the bottom) which way should i mount the lever to bleed it as for HS33 levers you should mount so it is pointing forward. Would this have an effect on the bleed?

    Thanks
