MXU 150 - No brake lever
« on: March 08, 2019, 02:21:37 PM »
Hi All, just installed a new brake caliper on MXU 150, new brake fluid and bled the system, but the brake lever comes all the way back - no brakes. The fluid is appearing in the tube from the caliper but will not fully discharge into the container. Any ides guys, your help is appreciated. Regards Tony

Massive air in system. Keep reservoir full and keep pumping. Or fill and bleed from botton. PITA either way....
