Magura brake leaking, needs new tube i think?
Help Help! Well my Back....I mean my magura is leaking pretty badly, and i think i need some new tubing for it, it pretty much broken off at one of the connecters. And i belive this is called the "crossover" tube, not the long one. It came..i mean i have a bleed kit, and it has some tubes, but i dont know if those tubes are ment as replacments or not. Help! Where can i get tubing? I heard jess just got some tubing at a local store, but i remember reading he had to heat it or something to get it to shrink over the connecter? What do i do?!?! -- Evan Byrne ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Evan Byrne's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9367 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/53241 |

The Magura tech manuals are available for download at the 'Magura web page in the service section' (http://www.magura.com/7thsenseCMS/index.php?id=49&L=1). Here's a link to the 2006 manual (in PDF): '2006 rim brake workshop manual' (http://tinyurl.com/jesll) If your brake has the type of fitting that uses the little olive (a little compression ring that fits around the tube, see the workshop manual to see what it is) you'll need to get replacement olives cause they can't be reused. A bike shop may have them is stock if you're lucky, otherwise they can order them and get them pretty quick. They can also get additional plastic hose if necessary. The workshop manual explains how to fit the new hose on the fittings and get the brake all functioning again. The 'Magura Cult' (http://www.execulink.com/~dtierney/w...a/contents.htm) page is another good source of info. -- john_childs john_childs (att) hotmail (dott) com Team Dirty Muni Gallery: http://gallery.unicyclist.com/john_childs 'Unicycling Bookmark List' (http://backcountry.unicyclist.com/) :: 'World Clock' (http://tinyurl.com/a99y3) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ john_childs's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/449 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/53241 |

It is supposed to mean that it is his rear brake on the trials bike he just got. -- Spencer Hochberg (disclaimer: i may not know what i am talking about) maxisback wrote: yeh i kill ppl for a living 'Gallery.unicyclist.com/spencer' (http://Gallery.unicyclist.com/spencer) AIM: Litldude2 Email: Litldude2 (att) aol (dott) com 'Bedford Unicycles' (http://BedfordUnicycles.ca) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Spencer Hochberg's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/12659 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/53241 |

That happened to the brake on my bike, when you fall or lean the bike on it's side depending on pedal position, the crossover line is the first thing to hit the ground. you can stop this by using a booster. but do yourself a favor, get v adapters and avid ultimates instead. -- onetrack "People over here have a dangerous habit of adding quotes to signature lines." -Klaas Bil I pulled a sick trey varial hickflip over an 8 set yesterday, but unfortunately it was supposed to be seat in to seat out.

Heh, Yeah, Right now i have the single bolt addapters on my maggies, and my frame has V-brake mounts. So today im getting some V's, Can you reccomend a good kind? Avid ultimates i guess? I hear that its not so much the liner pull brake that affects preformance, but the pads.
