ooo Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Ive got a small leak in one of my brakes, it is water bled. I'm thinking I need to put a racing line piston in the lever, but can the slaves go bad as well or are they usually okay ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gage-mann Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Slaves usually go a while at least without problems. I'd say they'll be alright providing the age of them isn't more than 5 years, prongs tend to snap I think before seal problems master pistons are are the ball ache, best with a racing line piston.

forteh Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 They can become sticky over timewhen the seals aren't lubricated, a quick bleed through with oil generally solves this though. Also using hard water could result in mineral build up in the cylinders but generally they're OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
