brad1995 Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 Today i noticed that my rear brake was leaking fluid at the lever but there isnt any fluid leaking out where the hose is. So what could it be ? And is it fixable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Dark Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Bump.Wrong section dude....Could be that the o-ring has perished somehow and needs replacing, or the lever body has a scratched bore and will need replacing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY MAN Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Today i noticed that my rear brake was leaking fluid at the lever but there isnt any fluid leaking out where the hose is. So what could it be ? And is it fixable?i had the same thing a while ago but i am not shure if it is the same !!when i first had my bike it had that brake and was fine but as i was progresing and getting better i had to keep changing my setup.but after a wile i realised that i was titening it one ride then after i had wrode a bit it i had to tighten it again.i found out that i had had either pulled it to hard and tightend it too mutch.in the end i had to replace the whole piston that is connected to the leaver.aprox £70 not cheep. send me a pm if u need to ask some pdesperate questionsAndy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I've no idea what you mean, but you definately didn't have to spend £70. If the lever was leaking, you replace the lever at £40 a go, and if either of the slaves were leaking you replace the slave at £16 a go. The rest is just hoses and connectors which are dirt cheap.
