ok so you see how the cross-over cable is mounted in the back position on the left but in the front position on the right?
this makes the cable diagnal,it works fine this way (the way it came) but i think it would look better if it came straight over the tyre like most Maggie brakes ive seen.
my question is,can i just unscrew it and put it in the other hole or is oil going to spill out?it seems like if i just make sure not to squeeze the lever it would be easy but ive never worked on these things before and dont have a bleed kit.
I have removed and replaced a fitting without bleeding and still had the brake work fine and I have also done the same and had air get in the line, so it's a gamble. I have made a brake bleeding kit out of two pieces of the plastic brake line and a couple of small plastic squeze bottles and I was told by a bike mechanic that you can use mineral oil for brake fluid and it has worked fine, but I am wondering if there is any advantage to useing the magura brake fluid?
