    how are the brakes?

    the lever feel good? the brakes work?

    Yeah lever feels ok , maybe a slight bit softer then the front lever , but when i was taking bleed pipe off i got fluid on the calipers and pads so cant really tell if the brakes are working well , have new set of pads ordered ,

    I the brake feels softer than the other bleed again. Make sure you pads are out and use a piston spacer of some description.
