  • Piston popped out of caliper on Magura Louise Brakes. Problem??

    I took the pads out of my Magura Louise brakes to replace them. Why they were out I cleverly stood on the brake lever causing one of the pistons in the caliper to pop out (and all the oil!!!). I cleaned the piston and slid it back in. Will I have caused any damage or anything or will my brakes be just fine once oil topped back up and bled?

    Cheers

    they should be fine once they are topped up and bleed.

    just be careful when pushing them back in you dont damage the surface with a sharp tool. i always use a tyre lever.

    Should be Ok – if you are unlucky it can cause seal failure but 90% of the time you will be fine.
