    Shimano mt200 brakes

    Bleeding elixir CR brakes

    Hello all, I went to bleed the boys brakes today (as we aren’t allowed to do much else) and had no dramas with his rear elixir R, but he has elixir CR on the front, and I couldn’t get the fluid from Caliper to lever as per several instructional videos. Yes I made sure the reach and pad contact...

    Those wheels look alright, not bad price either. Might be easier getting them then finding a set of old mtx33’s
