    Ok guys hears one for you 
    Front brake caliper siezed up on my bike so I put a piston kit in 
    Now I can not get pressure back in the brakes can't see any bubbles coming out no leaking fluid any where
    Day and a half later still the same even after I've left it over night never had this problem before ready to take up drinking again 
    Just wanna ride the beast

    Try bleeding it in reverse with a syringe.
    Push the fluid from the bleeder up to the master

    It will be an air bubble somewhere

    reverse bleed used to be the go with the "old" DOT 5 , no harm to paint

    If you are reverse bleeding with DOT 4 be extra super fucking careful !

    I have 2 of those pink boxed bleeder kits , well worth the wonga they are

    Still be extra super fucking careful tho'...
