bhups Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 There is no certain period you should change the fluid just do it when the brake is feeling spongey and you know there is air in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrAd-Tpro Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I have been told by a few people you should change it 1-3 weeks, I haven't in about 3 months so it looks like i am due for a bleed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Bleed and forget is the slogan with Maguras. If you've bled it correctly it'll work all the time perectlyEnd ofI haven't bled mine in 8 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 I have been told by a few people you should change it 1-3 weeks, I haven't in about 3 months so it looks like i am due for a bleed!In theroy, you should never have to re-bleed your brake. It's a sealed system so no water evaportates, so just bleed it once, do it right, and that's it until you have a problem.I had my maguras for 2 years befor i bled them.

Si-man Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Clean them whenever you feel like it or have abit of spare time on your hands.Get an airline in there aswell to blow away any shite inside the tubes and pistons.One day just give your bike a full overhaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel G Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 i have a water bleed on my brake and i have only changed it once because it froze but if it doesnt freeze (because you have anti freeze)then you should only change it when your brake starts to sponge or if you feel it is pulling back to far when you brake is set up fine. when you bleed your brake make sure your TPA and ur lever are all the way out as this can also give it a rubish pull if you dont do it.i hope this helps you mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
