I'll throw my question in this forum as I figure this is where I can get some help.
I'm having some issues getting a proper bleed on a set-up w/ saint calipers and LX levers (brand new). I've got the front feeling like money, but I can't get the mush out of the back.....and I've tried every trick I know. (lever-to-caliper, caliper-to-lever, shimano bleeder, etc; all many times!!!)
I've never encountered this w/ any shimano set-up and I'm out of ideas. One thing that is unusual: the pinston in the master cyclinder takes a few seconds to return upon its first and second squeeze of the lever (<--this is difficult to describe). Once there is pressure in the system, it returns fine. I'm thinking this is my issue, but I'm hoping there is a way to bleed around this. Any ideas??
So, I ask any of the shimano nuts to come out of the woodwork and maybe offer me some advice. Thanks.
