You bled it from the furthest away from the master cylinder then 3rd ect...?

[tango123]

didnt bleed the rears bud oops. will the master cyclinder need bleeding now too?

[iamlegend]

dont bleed the rears....

[tango123]

why shouldnt rears be bled?

[iamlegend]

If only doing the front then not...

[FMuscle]

Unless you ran out of fluid in the reservoir, you shouldn't have to bleed the rears.

[tango123]

didnt let the fluid run low. just got no brakes now

[turbo Grant]

You need to do some more bleeding if pedals not hard

[tango123]

bled it again. starting at rear an still nothing

[rwdrev]

whats your method of bleeding?

[fiddlersport]

is there absolutely no braking at all or does the pedal hit the floor then you get braking ?

[tango123]

i've tried gravity bleed. didnt work so got a friend to help. pedal goes straight to the floor an no brake pressure at all.

method

open bleed nipple push pedal down, hold pedal an close nipple. repeat that a few times. starting at nsr then osr. nsf an osf. cant push the pedal down an open the bleed nipple as normally would as pedal goes straight to the floor.

[FMuscle]

Reminds me... Is the nipple pointing up? I've heard a few peps installing the calipers on the wrong side with similar issues...

[tango123]

they wouldnt fit the wrong way around would they?

[morgey]

Yes they probably would as the stock ones do. Make sure the nipples pointing up as a start if not swap them over.
