Sounds like there is either no fluid or a lot of air (or both) in the line. In any case a bleed is definitely needed (at least) to help diagnose the issue. 30 ish dollars sounds about right.Originally Posted by aussiextc .
My main reason for asking is that I have just found I have no front brake (handle goes to the bar).. ...LBS is charging me $33 each end to do a bleed to see if this is the problem. I was wondering whether this was needed as regular preventative maintenance as some posts mention this as well as fluid changes every 12 or 24 months.
The principle seems to be the same, though I'd still rather use a syringe, which is more controlable.Originally Posted by aussiextc .
The Hayes kits I have seen only have squeeze bottles no syringe.
