My experience with brake components is that Moss will sell OEM TRW (they bo=
ught Gerling) items and also offer a cheaper aftermarket (GOLD) item. The R=
oadster Factory will only sell TRW (Gerling) items. I wouldn't buy anything=
 from J.C. VictoriaBrit Whitney, especially not brake related.

Sorry, no experience with the symptoms you described.

Subject: [6pack] Bad brake master cylinders

Hello,
   A couple of you (who's names I can't remember, sorry) wrote about receiv=
ing defective brake master cylinders from Moss. I'm in the same boat. There=
's a chance that I got BOTH of these MCs from VickyBrit but I doubt it. Any=
way...
   The first MC worked fine on the front brake circuit but the rear circuit=
 was sealed! No fluid movement at all. The second MC must be leaking intern=
ally. It will not build pressure front OR rear, but fluid does flow.
   After multiple bleeding, the pedal will build up a little resistance the=
n goes to the floor. Let set for 2-3 minutes and the pedal goes to the floo=
r with no resistance at all.
