at the weekend, now ive had my wheels powdercoated i decided to get all my brakes on and bled. now ive bled brakes before and it has never been this slow! tried pumping the lever, both caliper bleed nipples are open. ive tried opening and closing the bleed nipples while pumping the lever and yet the fluid just doesnt want to go anywhere??? i assume this is an air lock? how can i over come this?

A big syringe and draw the fluid from the bleed nipple.

cheers viper all sorted

Main problem I found was air in the line to the res, this just wouldn't clear and would then get sucked back down the line.

I found if bleeding them by the "traditional" method that either having the res much higher than the M/C or squeezing the tube until the bubbles stopped appearing in the res prevented this.

Love the syringe, have used it a few times. Twenty minutes and you're sorted.

so simple yet so effective! brakes now feel amazing. just cant wait to get riding it!
