Default S2 Brake master cylinder rebuild kit

Hello,,

it may be common knowledge but i only just saw that biggred do a seal kit for the 25mm master cylinder, i know a lot of people (even lately) saying they've changed to 23/22mm master cyls due to being unable to rebuild the 25mm ,

hopefully this helps,

Good to know! i just bought one tonight, easy enough to fit them?

Did you have any bother with air being trapped in master cyl when trying to bleed system ?

Yeah easy to do mate just take the mc off undo the bolt at the bottom and tap the cylinder on a table untill the inner assembly falls out then its pretty much self explanatory from then, make sure you take note of how the inner part comes appart as the ruber seals are directional .

I bled the master cylinder before connecting the pipes back on and had no problem. I made a couple of new pipes up that screwed into the master cylinder outlets and bent them round back into the reservoir under the flud level and pumped the brakes a few times
