I took my bike in a few months ago to get my magura julie hydraulic disc brakes. I bought the bike second hand and it needed it. The shop used shimano mineral oil. About a week ago the rear brake leaver started leaking mineral oil. Apparently Magura stopped selling parts (seal kit?) in 2012 and I'm SOL. Talking with a guy a my local bike club he suggested that it was because it was bled with shimano mineral oil instead of magura royal blood and that the manual states that using any other oil will result in catastrophic failure. Is this total BS or do I have a case for going back to the shop that bled them and demanding compensation?
