Just ordered a pair, I'm pretty sure they will be euro style (RH rear brake) so I will have to swap them round. 2 questions, can anyone confirm
1. they use standard mineral oil
2. I pull out hose from lever then add a couple of drops of oil to hose and connector as I rejoin them to prevent air getting in and shouldn't need a full bleed.
Any other tips?
hydro rim brake dave???
what bike
and be carefull.....v v powerfull........... 8)
Extra tips:
Grind your rim for extra power, put tar on your rim for even more power.
Sell them before you've got them fitted because there a pain in the arse
For my inbred Ton, currently on Vs, hoping they'll be fit and forget.
If you're careful, you can rejoin them without bleeding at all. Make sure you don't let the ends point down or shake around.
Magura Blood is the same as something you can get from halfords, I think it is citroen suspension fluid or something. Some kind of mineral oil.

cheers Joe I'll get the Mrs to help keep the hoses pointing up, "here, hold that" is about her level of mechanical ability 🙂
i have some mineral oil you can have what with having a Citroen and all that it is green is that the correct stuff?
Is that for the single speed?
How much were they?
