... Took a closer look and I think perhaps a brake line/cylinder seal has gone and it's dumped a large amount of fluid into the wheel and then it's pooled up and overflowed down the tyre wall...


If that's the case then before you do anything else check the fluid level in the master brake cylinder!!! If you've got that much fluid leaking out due to a component failure you may well be in danger of losing your brakes entirely due to fluid loss <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />
