Magura Oil

[wardie]

I'm trying to find some magura royal blood but i can't find anywhere that does anything above a 50 ml bottle, or doesnt sell it at stupid prices.

p.s. i dont want to bleed my brake with water so don't bring it up.

[Alan]

y not use water ?

I also have never seen anything bigger then 50 ml bottles. But, you could get hold of some DOT 4 fluid, its basically simular stuff but you can get it at any car shop or Spar and probably cheaper then maggie stuff.

Go to your local halfords and look for specialist mineral fluid.It`s only £6.50 and you get a 1l of it.It`s the same as the magura stuff but way cheaper.

Cheers

Danger! never use DOT brake fluid as this will destroy the brake. From the magura instruction manual

use minerial oil, think ive got bently clutch oil in mine but its a minerial oil and the viscosity was the right thickness

[Clarky]

I have tried clutch oil and it doesnt work as good, Just get some royal magura blood from www.chainreactioncycles.com and bleed it with that if it's an 05 but then again if its an 04 use water.

Hey, if you go into halfords and ask for LHM specialist mineral fluid, they should sort you out with it, its basically the same as magura royal blood. the tub that it comes in is black with green writing, also it comes in different sized tubs

I also have never seen anything bigger then 50 ml bottles. But, you could get hold of some DOT 4 fluid, its basically simular stuff but you can get it at any car shop or Spar and probably cheaper then maggie stuff.

Hey,

Its expensive dot 4/dot 5 brake fluid, also you cant put it in a magura brake (idealy)

Hope braking systems run on dot 4 or 5 brakefluid. it has a strong smell to it and would take the paint work of your bike, so beware

cheers

I found some Tesco's Baby oil the other day at an even cheaper pricer than the Johnsons stuff- 500ml for 99p! At that price you can indeed buy a few bottles and make sure you flush out the old stuff thoroughly
