Bike disc brake question

<< < (3/4) > >>

thermidorthelobster:
Yes Dom, it is - thanks very much.  What mineral oil would you recommend if I don't want to shell out for the Magura branded stuff?

L90OOK:
How much room does the paramoto take?
I am taking my bike...there should be loads of room.

DFR:
go to any car accesories shop or Halfords and buy the own brand stuff as it will do just fine, you'll never get through a litre of it anyway!

this may be of some use to you

Digressing slightly, my old Pace Research had the Magura rim brakes. they were bled at home & I just used a syringe (with a small o-ring as a seal) to do it

Again, the rim brakes used Citroen hyro-pneumatic suspension fluid (bought in litre bottle at main-dealer)

What do the modern brakes use??

The Trek 6000 I bought a couple of weeks ago has Avid 'Juicy 3'
What would fluid that use if it needed bleeding?

If I remember rightly, the Magura stuff is called Magura Blood and is very expensive, I used Venoil VO 500, I have loads spare but....remember that riddle you came up with.........
