mineral oil is now p1ssing out everywhere and the caliper looks proper broken.
Glad I’m not the only one covered in mineral oil after the weekend 🙂
Brand new SLX 675 brakes – I began bleeding them for the first time using epic bleed solutions kit and as I pushed the syringe at the calliper fluid pisses out of the lever from the diaphragm seal – lots of it, all over the wood floor in my front room, I don’t yet know how much damage was done.
I’ve also got a small collection of hose nuts with rounded flats.
Attaching a hose to an elixir 5 calliper I sheared of the head leaving the thread in the calliper. Fortunately I greased the thread before hand other wise I would not have been able to extract it from the calliper.
