feest Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Nice one, it's good to see a legible topic in NMC. The pictures (for me) don't seem to work but it's a good guide. By the way in the FAQ section of the forum there's already one of these but still, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Kearney Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 To be more thorough you could include the taking the grip off/putting back on process, its the first and last part of the process, as some people(including me) have struggled on that front.

Dan6061 Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Use an 8mm spanner, instead of pliers. I tried this once, didn't work for me. So I used a syringe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh!! Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 (edited) ok the best way to bleed a magura in a bath is this :step 1: take your brake of your bikestep 2: get a bleed kit (syringe and pipe)step 3: go to your bathroomstep 4: undo the grub screw on the magura lever step 5 : undo the screw on the master cylinder (the bottom end)step 6 : put the pipe with a nipple on and screw it in the master cyllinder step 7: pull the water through the lever till it fills the syringe up (doing this underwater)step 8 : squirt the water out of the syringe (step 9 : repeat this as many times as you want step 10 : put the screw back in the lever (underwter so no air gets in )step 11 : do the same on the master cyllinder step 12 : fit it back on your bike and go ride whoooopss didnt see the first post i thought how do you bleed maguras in the bath :$ Edited April 26, 2006 by Josh!!
