Default McLeod?

Has anyone had any success with the McLeod MC working properly? Pedal play not moving around, mushiness(sp?), etc? Any success after rebuilding it?

Thanks
Ryan

I had a problem with the 1st one - wouldn't bleed up. But McLeod replaced it and since no problems. I got one of the first ones, and there was a small problem that has since been corrected (according to what I have read). Since install of 2nd master, no more missed gears either

Just follow the bleeding directions and I kept bleeding until there were no more bubbles and it works great I love it.
