Thats good. We've been cracking down on people putting stainless sleeves in alloy cylinders.

Well after taking the brake cylinder out yesterday I discovered they have been re-sleeved
with stainless steel already. The cups/seals were fine too.

The problem was the bleeder screw - it had been cross threaded by the previous owner and
was not sealing. I wish I knew this before taking the brakes apart but I couldn't find the
source as there was fluid everywhere!

Ah well atleast I know my cylinders are OK!
