Need help getting all the air out of your Magura brakes? Do you want a firm and consistent lever feel? Than this video is for you! Do this every time you shorten your hoses or flush new oil through your Magura brakes. Feel free to leave any questions in the comments below.
A FEW UPDATES/MUST READ:
1. You don't have to pull as much of a vacuum as I did in this video. You can either fill the syringe with a little more fluid, or just don't push all the air out to start with the plunger higher up. This is especially important on the front brake due to the shorter hose. If you're having a really hard time pulling the plunger past the hole, it's probably too much vacuum. Although it's unlikely that you might damage something, it's best to stay on the safe side.
2. The hole on the syringe doesn't have to be at the 30ml mark. It simply needs to be toward the top, but not so high that the plunger won't go past it. If you have a 25ml syringe, that's fine. If you have a larger syringe, you can drill the hole lower.
3. Turns out that newer Magura bleed kits now come with a pre-drilled hole in one of the syringes. On older sets, you used to have to make the hole yourself.
4. When filling the brakes from scratch(like when you install a new brake hose), make sure to have the caliper vertical or you might end up with a large air pocket that will cause a lack of pressure resulting in the lever pulling to the bar. If you feel no resistance/pressure at the lever, this is a likely cause.
