    My lads formula rx’s need bleeding everytime we go out on it !,it’s the rear only as soon as I’ve bled them it’s fine ,& air does come out you can see it up the tube !,but leave it a week & lever comes back to the bar again.

    I’m using syringes pushing fluid from the master cylinder to the caliper,I fill the syringe & it’s usually needs two syringes to get a lever !

    There dosn’t appear to be any fluid loss,or evidence of leaks !,what’s up with it ?,or am I doin summert wrong ??.

    Hang on… are you just bleeding from the bottom? That’s not how it’s done with Formula, really got to follow the process or it won’t work.

    I have Rx brakes, don’t have the issue around bleeding them but do find I get brake ‘judder’ under heavy braking. It’s almost like abs. Would that be the pads being awful?
