master cylinders

Post by phil63 »

I am thinking of going into disk brakes .&nbsp; I understand that the master cylinder will need modifyfing and probably a remote resevoir,<BR><BR>.Looking at the design&nbsp; the fluid feeds into the rear of the cylinder and the air hole is blocked off of course . But does this leave an air pocket at the top?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; and will this cause a problem when bleeding <BR>&nbsp;Regards Phil

No problem when bleeding, the air pocket is small and at the top so it's far away from the bottom of the original reservoir...
