It has seen better days for sure....I'm thinking this is your issueGot a wild hair to take the mc apart to see how it looks. The bore has micro pitting and the piston as you can see has had better days. Replacement mc in the works. Im fairly positive this is the cause of my issues.

How did you get pie crust crumbs in there? I hope the new MC resolves your issue.Got a wild hair to take the mc apart to see how it looks. The bore has micro pitting and the piston as you can see has had better days. Replacement mc in the works. Im fairly positive this is the cause of my issues.

Because he bakes pie with his bike!How did you get pie crust crumbs in there? I hope the new MC resolves your issue.
What caused the MC to deteriorate? Moisture alone?
It is all good bro , you are on to it , everything will be now be a new setup , and you should be well on the way to enjoying competent braking on your tasty ride . Looking forward to this next ride / brake test .My guess would be poor maintenance and age.
But did you order pie? Remember the proper sequence is pump lever, open and close bleeder screw, eat a fork full of pie and repeat while not getting crumbs into the system this time. Keep going until the pie is gone or your brakes work just by using telepathy whichever comes first.Quick update, I went on and ordered new Galfer SS brake lines. I don't know the others were bad or that this will make a difference. I did have a spot on the other that the coating was rubbed through. At least it will be piece of mind. Will update again as MC and lines get in
Ha! You make it sound soooooo easy...But did you order pie?

Rest easy knowing that I don't drink coffee, have no worries there lolFork for pie? Fancy a$$. Prolly drink your coffee with your pinkie pointing out too.....
My bad, coffee is too harsh on your tummy I'm sure. Warm milk is more suitable for a person who eats pie with a fork...Rest easy knowing that I don't drink coffee, have no worries there lol

There are forks especially designed for eating desserts and pie. I use a fork after all, I am civilized.I use a spoon
