        Does it feel right to you? Have you checked your calipers? pistons?

          What you swapped out? The master cylinder. Does it definitely work?

          I've had issues in the past, on my RS master cylinders that simply would not bleed.

            @Calum New Calipers and/or master cylinder was literally the only way to get them working. Bled straight away after that.

                    I highly recommend this.

                    I've used it and it works wonders. Very cheap and Chinesy, don't expect it to last every day. But I've done countless cars/bikes with it. Great cheapy kit that works. Much safer than pumping the brake.

                      @Calum You know I just saw those kits, which must be fairly new? And was going to suggest one, but as I have not used one myself, I decided to go with the syringe kit instead. As I have used that kit and know that those kits work very well too.
