[#8459358]

Rear started going back to the bar.

I follow epicbleedsolutions and put a syringe on the caliper and push fluid through and a load of black oil comes out.

I force it through until clean stuff comes through then let it drip back through a tube into a bag.

Fluid drops into the bag extremely slowly and then stops.

Is there anyway to sort this or are the seals gone?

Not sure about the bag thing. Never used a bag. I thought Epic kits had two syringes?

I always start by removing the caliper, pumping the pads out a bit until they're almost touching, then push fluid through from the caliper up to the lever syringe(with plunger removed)

When no bubbles, close off the nipple, ease the pads apart until it slides over the disc and fit.

Solid as owt.
