• I took my bike back to the shop today. A mechanic looked over the counter at the levers and said it’s normal for them to “leak” fluid through breather holes. I asked about the front brake having a lower bite point and he said it’s because the hose is shorter.

    I didn’t feel confident with his response so went back at the end of the day and spoke with another employee. He has booked it in for a proper inspection and rebleed.

  • The first guy was correct.
    Even after a rebleed it’s very likely there will be a slight difference in bite point.

    Strongly agree with user Amey, bleeding sram brakes takes all of 10 minutes.
