Default Help Brake master cylinder

Please can anyone help me, my brakes have failed on my 75 Tourer and it could be the master cylinder, I have tried Rimmers and they say it is no longer available. Anyone any idea where I could get one please.

Are you sure it’s the master cylinder? I’ve never had one fail!

I’ve seen plenty of burst pipes though!!

The same here!!

I would check the brake pipes first, especially front to rear.

Sorry about double posting I put it on the wrong one, saw I should be on the tech forum.

Ask your favourite garage to replace the old pipes with kunifer.
