Pieter1 Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Hi Guys/Girls. I have this hole in my brake hose. Can I just put masking tape around it and then bleed it?Thanks for the help!
Guest Omega Man Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Yes of course you can. But if you actually want your brakes to work then no. TopFuel, G00SE, Pants Boy and 2 others 5
Pieter1 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Posted August 13, 2013 Yes of course you can. But if you actually want your brakes to work then no.I was thinking the same thing, was wishful that I could do it D.I.Y.
Jigghead Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Nope, if they rely on pressure, you're gonna need to replace them.
Pieter1 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Posted August 13, 2013 Nope, if they rely on pressure, you're gonna need to replace them.Will probably boil down to that. Will take it to Linden cycles tomorrow and see what we can sort out. I thought "Ah I'll just bleed my brake" and then I found that hole. Cant figure out how it happened but my rear brake was slowly losing pressure, guess I found the problem....
Capricorn Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Hi Guys/Girls.I have this hole in my brake hose. Can I just put masking tape around it and then bleed it?Thanks for the help! you married, with kids, but the blonde at the office is just too irresistable. Question is, do you have use the condom you have that you know has a hole in it and hope nothing bleeds out, or... Jan Wyn, droo, Captain Fastbastard Mayhem and 2 others 5

Meezo Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Dude! What brakes they're for? I might have shimano hoses for you... Only for you! What length Pieter1 1
gummibear Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Nice clean cut...so don't think it was from a fall? Pretty sure that duct tape will work better than masking tape MTBc and SwissVan 2
Pieter1 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Posted August 13, 2013 Dude! What brakes they're for? I might have shimano hoses for you... Only for you! What lengthThanks Meezo!! They are for Formula K18's. I'm not sure if it will fit.

Meezo Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 Thanks Meezo!! They are for Formula K18's. I'm not sure if it will fit. Wait. Sorry had a dumbass moment. A hydraulic hose is a hydraulic hose is a hydraulic hose. You will need the connector for the K18's or Formula's any LBS should have. Tell me length and pm address will post to you Pieter1 1
