Noob question - must the brake / clutch fluid reservoirs be mounted high?

[slowkitty]

Can it be mounted lower than the master cylinders?  All pics seem to show high - gravity feed?

Cheers

You can get em low

Thanks, but will there be a problem in feeding the system if mounted lower than the master cylinders? I have always assumed that the fluids are gravity fed.

Looks like the bike in the picture has the levers rotated around the bars to point slightly downwards and the resevoirs are mounted horizontal to the brake cylinder, but are still above it so they are gravity fed.

The reservoirs need to be at least level with the lowest part of the hose or inlet of the master.

gravity feed?

Yup

+1 unless you want an air bubble to be in the wrong place at the wrong time....
