hello just wanted to know if anyone knows how to get air out of brake line. I put new pads on and push the pistons back with the bleeder open and let the fluid run out of the reserve. Now when i try to bleed the blakes the pistons not moving and the brake handle just touches the grip. please help

Fill it with fluid bleeder closed pump the brake lever, hold the lever in crack bleeder, close bleeder pump an hold crack bleeder, close bleeder. Watch you don't run out of fluid. . Keep repeteing the above till fluid tins out without air bubbles.

It is hard to get the air bubbles out of the liner, try this. fill your it up, but let the cap off, pump brake lever, then wait, little by little bubbles will rise to the top. (make sure the brake revavor is level.

If you pump the brake lever with the reservoir cap off, do it SLOWLY!! Otherwise you will spray fluid all over the place.  |
