FMuscle Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Unless you ran out of fluid in the reservoir, you shouldn't have to bleed the rears. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tango123 Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 didnt let the fluid run low. just got no brakes now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rwdrev Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 whats your method of bleeding? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlersport Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 is there absolutely no braking at all or does the pedal hit the floor then you get braking ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tango123 Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 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 Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Reminds me... Is the nipple pointing up? I've heard a few peps installing the calipers on the wrong side with similar issues... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tango123 Posted December 20, 2014 Author Share Posted December 20, 2014 they wouldnt fit the wrong way around would they? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Yes they probably would as the stock ones do. Make sure the nipples pointing up as a start if not swap them over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
