hey guys.
I'm running 2012 Shimano XT brakes and last night I noticed a lack of feel in my front lever. It got worse and worse, so i stopped riding and had a look. It appears that the brake fluid is leaking from the point where the hose joins the lever reservoir.
I rode straight back to the car from this point, and by the time I got there, about 20min later, most of the fluid was out of the line and on my bars/ shifters. The lever was hitting the grip when squeezed.
Any ideas of what this could be? I'm thinking burst seal?
And is it repairable or could I claim it on warranty. The brakes are only 1 month old!
