Yeah im proper bored at the moment, so im putting my time to good use.
Last week i replaced the master cylinder and flushed the old cruddy fluid from the front brakes and noticed a difference straight away. After a couple of days i noticed the "surging" has returned, i know the discs are straight and tidy so i am gonna over haul the calipers.
What stuff to get from wemoto peeps.

Re: Brake System Overhaul
you could just try removing the calipers and cleaning the pistons and greasing dont have to buy new parts/seals etc.

Took me 5 days to solve the issues I created by trying to fix them.

Re: Brake System Overhaul
Brakes are easy to work with. Very simple really. The master cylinder overhaul kit was easy to install.
I just need to know what seals to get etc innit
