Someone please tell me in very short sentences how to bleed my Formula Ones- I have the kit and the fluid but also the engineering skills of Mongo from Blazing Saddles and only seem to make them worse.
I was bleeding my avid elixir's today, total nightmare!! Had to do it 3 times and ended up doing it with the pads still in, instead of the bleed block. I followed the SRAM video guide which was good but in the end had to problem solve and sort it myself.
I know that doesn't help with formulas as such but.....
Don't know what model your brakes are.....I have had a look online and only found this:
Any good?
its a good start- straight away realise I have lost the o ring from the back caliper!!
Ah...I would say a trip to the LBS then. Wish I could help more but it was my first time bleeding today.
I don't think you will get anywhere fast with out that o ring. If you know the guys at the shop maybe they can give you some pointers for bleeding next time?
All I can say is it seems to be a trial and error thing, it is a bit of a faff too but once you have got your head round it, it's not that bad.
Hope you get it sorted soon 🙂
yeah- thanks for your help.
