SamKidney Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 He means go for it. Water bled Maguras are 100% goodness in terms of brake feel. Whack a little anti-freeze into the water to stop it freezing over winter. Will aid lubrication too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny00135 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Theres been complaints that it swells the pistons.. but you can easily sand them to make them run smoother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dngr2self Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 ahh thanks bing and echo lite o9 does it last that long though cause water evaporates The system is sealed so it won't evaporate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 But as Sam said make sure you put anti freeze in it or it will freeze when you're put riding which sucks cock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.KYDD Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 50% water 50% antifreeze is my preffered mixture. Antifreeze is good as it has anticorrosive and properties so won't knacker your seals - and stops your brakes freezing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
