Hi!

Well i was servicing my brakes and unfortunately the bleeding nipple was stuck and well the long story short, i broke it. Now it is stuck in the caliper and i canīt bleed the system anymore.
I have tried to get it out, and will continue, but if the bad scenario kicks in i probably will need new caliper.

Does everyone seem to have extra one or know where i could get it?
Also does the dual braking system caliper fit to non dual, coz i have non dual?

 

There was one on e-Bay UK a few days ago, Kaspar. I'll check............
Sorry, F-P model and an 87 bracket. Nothing else in the UK.
Maybe e-bay motors USA or e-Bay.de (Germany) ?

 

Thanks Pete!
ebay.de has 87 model calipers, but i imagine those wont fit.
usa had 96 version.

 

Nothing in Germany either, Kaspar.
And no, 87 won't fit, nor will 93 onwards.
Let the hunt begin...........
(you can of course drill out the old one, retap the thread and fit a bigger bleed nipple...)
Cheaper and just as effective.
Maybe even fit a small helicoil.......


UPDATE ! sent this guy an e-mail in London - he's breaking a 90 model.

Big Thanks Pete!

Well i managed to put it all together and did the bleeding via the same hole that the oil is coming to caliper. I just hold it upwards and the air hopefully all air came out.
Right now it seems to be ok, but weīll see in summer
I was trying to trill it out also but stopped, because i could not find a new nipple with bigger screw.
Anyway i hope it will hold for now and if not, i am still keeping eyes open for new caliper

Oops. Just realized that an 87 won't work.

 

Yep those are 87
just came from garage and right now it seems to be ok, as it is back brake it is not so big problem luckily
