Trick to bleeding front brakes?
#11
Took 30 mins to change my old rubber hoses to shiny new red braided ones. That was last Thursday - still bleeding the brakes now! I'm nearly there. Patience and perseverance seem to be the key.
Also - I've found that ty wrapping the lever (tightish against the bar) overnight then releasing in the morning finds a few more bubbles each day. Think i got the most airated bottle of DOT4 that was in the shop.
Initially took 6 hours of bleeding / pumping / having a cigarrette / swearing before I got any pressure on the lever.
