SunnyBoy Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Does the brake feel spongey after bleeding or are there other problems? How are you bleeding them and with what fluid? Might be problems with the slave cylinders if they're bled OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Unfortunately with bleeds you can be doing everything 'right' and still not do it right. I haven't watched that vid but I always found with maggies that giving everything a good old tap as your are bleeding helps dislodge any pockets of air. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bing Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) take the brake off your bike and Do it in a sink full of water so no air can get back in. push water in from both ends making sure all air comes out. worked for me every time. like a bath bleed but not if you know what I mean Edited June 14, 2012 by danchandler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Sutton Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Just done it and it feels better than if i bath bled it, I did it the other way of what the video said and it works fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
