Mark W Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 Probably just need to re-bleed and tighten. If that doesn't work, just try boshing some plumbers tape (PTFE tape) in there, and that might sort it. Alternatively, claim on the Magura leak-proof warranty :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 Hey mate sound like you need a new olive in the joint of the hosing going iinto the slave cylinder, or the hosing could have came off the olive. you can get olives from your local bike shop hope this helps.

RobinJI Posted May 30, 2005 Report Share Posted May 30, 2005 I had that problem when we (me and Prawn) first bodged together my maggie but on the other slave cyliner, chances are that it just needs tightening and bleeding like mine did. If you don't already then bleed it with water (make sure you flush out the oil first) as this will allow you to bleed it anywhere very easily if you shove a bleed kit in your bag. Prawn found this the other day when he reblead his maggie in the middle of plymouth using water from a fountain. Cheers again to Prawn and his mate for the pieces of maggie that we managed to get to work as an entire break! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
