hi have got a front brake spare and doing a little experiment (will post pics when done) but i need the hoses alot longer so could i please have some advise in changing hoses and re bleeding as new to bleeding thx

Firstly, to change around the hoses:

Unscrew the 8mm sleeve nut at the slave cylinder and pull out the tubing. Put a sleeve nut and a new olive on the tubing. Do the same with the lever (do all of this only if there is not a sleeve on the new hose already) Screw back in the hosing into the lever and caliper by hand at first because they are quite easy to cross thread then use the 8mm spanner.

To bleed with water in a sink/bath/bucket:

Plunge the whole break under the water and unscrew the nut at the lever ( just by the cable ) and the caliper (the only allen key you can undo) and squeeze the lever under the water and watch air bubbles and oil fly out, Then put your finger over the spot where the allen key nut is taken out and pull the lever and play around with it, then do the same process a few times. When you are happy the break is bled well, the calipers are moving as soon as you pull the lever and their is no air in the system do you both bolts still under water and you will have a nice bleed .

Everyone bleeds their maggies differently, that is just how I do it and it works amazingly.
