[urq] Stopping Power: 100%- 50%- 10%- BLEEDING

[Ado Sigal]

No Maurits, its 100% of the problem, but as I said earlier, 90Q PV is 
far superior design. However, if you're stuck, can send you my spare Ur 
PV at the cost of postage. It'll take a few days though, I'm in Geneva.

Cheers,

Ado

Fluid pored out as expected without bubbles. Next in line was the Proportioning Valve (PV) beneath the BMC, but all came out was air and very little fluid. Then I bled the front left caliper but only air here also.... When I think about this, if the PV is faulty, it must be impossible to bleed the caliper(s) because the fluid can't get there in the first place because of the PV? Is this assumption correct?
