  A right hand Apex will be fine too.

  Hey.

  I’ve managed to strip the threads in my Rival 1 banjo bolt hole. However, I’ve removed the hose and found the threads are fine closer to the bottom of the hole. I’m wondering if I can buy a longer banjo bolt to tighten into the remaining threads? Any other ideas of how to sort out or is the shifter toast?

  Cheers,

  Tom

  There’s no movement in the caliper or any affect on the fluid.

  Thanks for this. Just tried that and the shifter doesn’t move any fluid through the system.

  Tried this again after moving the lever reach to different positions but I’m still not able to push brake fluid through the system. Anyone got any ideas? Possible blockage in the hose? It’s strange as the brake was working fine before sending it off to Sram for a warranty on the broken gear shifting. Now the gears work but the brake doesn’t... Facepalm emoji.

  Hey, thanks for your replies on this. I think I realised what I might have been doing wrong. I assumed the reach bolt which is visible on the inner of the shifter controlled both the gear paddle and the brake lever. I’ve now realised there are two separate reach bolts that control either lever. I’m gonna adjust the brake reach and see if has any affect on the bleeding. Thanks again. Tom.
