SamHolmes Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 Would it be possible to use a magura olive again if you just cut it away from the hose ? And... when fitting an olive, do you need to hammer it on or will it just slide on the hose? cheers :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomturd Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 They slide onto the hose no problems without the use of a hammer... I dont think they reccomend you use them twice, although in my experience its possible. You can buy new ones for 75p each (I think) from cleanbikes - might be worth adding a couple to your next order if your planning one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dave Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 nope pretty sure its not, i tried a while ago wen u use them the first time they get squished, so therefore really hard/impossible to get the the new hose :) hope ive helped :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomturd Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 Good point, I never took them off the hose when I did it, just refitted the hose and squished them in harder. Eitherway, it'd be worth getting new ones, its not worth rebleeding and everything to find it leaks for 75p! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
