Flubber Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 just fill a sink full of water, take the allen key bolt off one of the cylinders and take the one out of the lever body, stick them under water (the whole lot, make sure the holes dont come above the surface), and pump the lever, i also had a old printer siringe i used to pump water through aswell, once you cant see any more bubbles, screw the bolts back into place but still under water and there you go a fully bled maggy.ps before you start make sure the tpa is all the way off.hope ive helpedFlubber:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkJoker Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 ALSO dont ride out in very cold weather!! went for a random ride with a mate in the winter and of course the water had started to freeze = no brakes!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard jersey Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 The same as you bleed a brake with Magura oil just use water instead. And put anit-freeze in it aswell other wise the water will freeze in the winter and you won't really have a brake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrylumley Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 heatsink bikes do just a syringe kit at about £9 which is far cheaper than having to buy a service kit at £20?wind the tpa all the way out, take the bolt out of the slave, take the bolt out of the lever body, fill the syringe with water + anti freeze and screw into the slave, inject the water untill the fluid that is coming out of the lever is the same colour as the fluid in the syringe, then put the bolt back into the lever body, take the syringe off the cylinder and the put the bolt in, and thats it!hope this helps, harry!
