I was all set to buy a new caliper and graft it onto the front of my current m755 setup but have realised that the front brake is running the bit of Goodridge hose that is previously used on a Hope.
I flushed the hose out with plenty of brake cleaner so I'm pretty convinced that I'd have gotten rid of all the dog fluid but now there's s lingering suspicion that a tiny bit of dot got in and has fuxxored the seal and that a similar fate awaits any other caliper I use with this lever and hose.
Am I being paranoid?
