Is Al Miles still in business?

maylar · Aug 13, 2015

I have a Lockheed brake M/C that was sleeved by Al Miles a couple years ago. I'm having an issue with it and I'd like to ask him a couple questions. Anybody have his contact info?

Thanks

I talked to him about one I was using a few years ago, his phone number is on the paperwork I have at home. If no one else chimes in with it sooner I'll send it to you later today. What issues are you having? If it's trouble bleeding the general rule is to pull in the lever and zip tie the lever to the grip over night. This worked for me.

Thanks guys. The problem is that the lever gets stuck sometimes when I go to apply the brake. It seems like the piston is hanging up in the bore at the beginning of the stroke. Squeezing harder will make it finally break free and activate, but man it's a scary thing. This happened before, a couple years ago, and Al fixed it for me. But I lost his contact info.

Thanks.

Al is very much alive and well, and usually doesn't conduct retail activity that I know of (present examples excepted). I have all three Commando master cylinders with reduced bores, if you get to that stage.
