yeah, i bled my front brake and now the pistons wont move and the lever just moves back and forth freely. i think i might have messed up the master cylinder, i think this because when i pulled out the bleed plug the rubber thing that you plug the bleed plug into pulled out with the plug, it didn't come all the way out, but it stretched out. i dont know if you can understand that but please help me. ohyeah, they're hayes hfx-9s.

rebleed, you just have air in the line. the genereatioon 2 caliper that the hfx-9 have tends to trap air easier than the old one, so make sure that suscker is at a 45 degree angle and if you can as you bleed it move it around, so you may want to take it off the bike while bleeding.
