I'm guessing there are seals that have gone in the lever but does anyone know what I need to replace? I'm struggling to find internet sources for any instock rebuild kits and I'm also worried about oil I've seen seeping out of the reservoir cap. New diaphragm too?
Any help welcome!
Been using spray lubes on the pivots by any chance? Classic symptoms of seals swelling due to contamination. Most shops deal with Fishers (the importer), so won't be too difficult to source spares. If you have contaminated it, use a brake cleaner to make sure there's no traces whatsoever left, or you'll end up doing it all again.
Just check and see what a new one would cost. It will come with new pads as well remeber
Have you tried to bleed them before anything else?
Friends bike so don't know any history.
Have tried bleeding and its still like it.
Good idea on the whole brake or what not. Will have a look around for that.
Thanks all.
