fruitbat Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Or take it to a bike shop and get a proper job done, saves you doing it and making a bad job of itFrooty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 Do a quick bleed. Take the resevoir cap off, pull the lever repeatedly while flicking the cable and wait for the air bubbles to stop rising. Whack the cap back on and see how it feels.
