Rear Brake
 
Hi guys, i stripped the rear brake on Sat for a clean, and to my surprise the pins came out without too much problems :D :D, question is, where can i get some stainless pins to replace them with??

also, how hard is it to bleed the rear brakes, any tips?

cheers

That's where I got mine from as wellAA As for bleeding get yourself a Mitty Vac And you'll bleed them in minuites 8)

Out of interest which mityvac have you got? Also, if it's the standard (rather than silverline) one, is the included 1/4" (internal) diameter tubing okay or did you have to use a more narrow one?

and you don't need to buy a "Mitty Vac"-thing :wink:

Bleeding the brakes are not a problem. Just remember that the rear caliper has two bleed nipples. Do the outside first, then the inside, then the outside again.
