I have both rear calipers with seized nipples, I have been giving them a dose of penetrating fluid every few days in the hope that when I attempt them (weather permitting) they will play the game.

Also try not to use a ring spanner as it puts an un-equal load on the nipple. They don't like being pulled to one side Use a BOX type spanner that puts an axial load equally on all the threads.
A bit of heat with a small blow torch, cooled afterwards with some penetrating oil, which as it cools the nipple will draw in the oil. ( partial vacuum, atmospheric pressure.)--- Last edited by COLVERT; 25th February 2020 at 20:22.. |

Finally got to use the syringe i purchased for the bleeding of the system, due to my hose failing link below.

Hi guys, following on from this, I am bleeding my dadas 75... (new calipers on the back) yet the Rear O/S just won't bleed properly. The pedal is almost impossible to depress. The other 3 brakes bleed absolutely fine, but not this one! Once in a blue moon I can get some fluid through it, but then the pedal just goes solid and nothing comes out... I have also tried a vacum bleeder on it too.... any ideas at all? New brake hoses on the back as well as calipers by the way.... I'm really stumped...
