Eduardo Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 (edited) Just a syringe and a cross over without 1 end attatched, then put that on the end of the syringe and it should work lol.

Cookyboy Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Alternatively take the brake off and bleed it in a sink or bucket full of water, not ideal but is free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben John-Hynes Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 I just used a Magura crossover and a lucozade sport bottle. The rest writes itself really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sstein Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 You don't need a crossover, get a section of rubber tubing from any hardware or mechanic shop and you can use that. It would help to have a barbed nut to attach the hose to the brake but You can bodge it without (with a lot of effort). Alternitavely fill up a buckey with oil, bleed it like that and then wash it off/dry, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross McArthur Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 First rule of Chineese new year. No bleeding Denguras! You could try and drill a bolt through the middle and whack that into the bleeding valve. Stuff a straw down the bolt and attach the syringe. Always do it under water for best results!

sobek Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 problem solved...my friend bleed it but using a different way to the video i saw on this site.now i wonder how long it will be until i need to bleed it again.thinking of investing in a magura hs33 once the weather starts to get warmer.
