Guys, this process is perfect up to putting back the bleed screw in the caliper, as you lost oil when removing the syringe and tightening the bolt. Magura suggests to take the caliper above the lever to avoid this. I had that issue and this fixed it. Just a heads up for anyone else trying to bleed these brakes following this video. Cheers!

So many people sugesting to raise the caliper above the master cylinder.. if you want to be sure no air gets inside the caliper when you disconnect the syringe, there is an easier solution. You just leave bleeding funnel with some oil in it, connected to the lever, disconnect the syringe from the caliper, close the caliper, and then remove the funnel and close the master cylinder.

I volunteer at a community bicycle workshop It’s funny I bled a Magura the first time a couple of weeks ago using Maguras recommended system and thought afterwards this is a stupid system next time I should get a shimano bleed pot and if it’s a different thread make an adaptor. Trust Park Tool to make one. I also love the syringe holder. You took a while to get these bleed kits out but as per usual it’s better than the OEM

I would add a couple steps/tips: 1) after reinstalling the bleed port screw on the caliper, remove the bleed port plug on the lever, cycle the lever a couple times, and add a couple drops of Royal Blood before reinstalling the bleed port plug 2) a very important step - after removing the bleed block, clean the caliper inside and out with rubbing alcohol. Any residual brake fluid will quickly contaminate your pads/rotors leading to all kinds of badness.

A little trick: during this process you can adjust the bite point by using narrower piston blocks. Of course, the bite point also changes with the wear of the brake pads, but I prefer to do twice the accelerated bleeding ( with one syringe - if the used oil change is not necessary and the system is not heavily aired) with the bite point adjustmet in the season and enjoy a much better braking feel. But not everyone likes short lever stroke like me. For me, this is invaluable because this setting makes my hands less tired while driving.

The brake caliper should be removed from the bike when bleeding to get a better bleed. When disconnecting the syringe from the caliper, the caliper should be higher than the master cylinder to avoid oil leaking out when disconnecting the syringe. Even a tiny amount of oil lost will make the brakes spongy as magura master cylinders have a very small fluid reservoir compared to other manufacturers.

Remove The bleed cup , replace screw . lightly spread the pads back , not much you don’t want to blow any seals... replace the rear wheel and now you have taken up some of that free stroke.
