front brakes

[ghostbiker]

There is a reason i never touch brakes  :rolleyes :rolleyes :eek :rolleyes :rolleyes

droped out old pads and was about to replace one side thinking wow this is pish easy when i had the thought..... well if its that easy i will pump out the pistons a little way and just clean them a little, first 2 no problem, pumped them out a little way and toothbrush and pushed back in.
then the next two, pop one pops out.... fluid everywhere.

seemed to push back in with no problems thank god. fitted pads and did other side (not cleaning quite as well) no problems at all.

but as i had fluid leak out (i had no idea it would do that) when the piston poped out i must now have air in the system as no matter how much i pump the leaver i have nothing at all, not even moving the pistons.

Now i assume its just air in the system on the 1 side i poped out. so i think it will be a simple case of bleeding that side and bobs your uncle twice removed.

the problem lol is 1 i have no fluid, 2 i have no hose that fits the nipple, 3 i HATE bleeding brakes and finaly 4.... I REALY hate bleeding brakes lol
no where close to get any fluid or hose so looks like a bus ride when i can be arsed to and have finished swearing
