So I winterized my Super Tenere about three months ago and noticed about a month ago that the front brake piston caliper was leaking. I removed the caliper, replaced the leaky seal, and bled the brakes. I took the bike out, brakes worked fine for 30ish miles and I discovered a spoke in the rear got loose and the bike had to sit again.
As it sits now, the caliper is leaking again, but significantly less it seems. Is it just because it's cold out and chilly in the garage? I'm assuming that the seal hasn't been broken in yet and got smaller due to the cold, but I just wanted to make sure.
Bringing me to my second question. Should I have replaced the rest of the seals? If the other one IS leaking due to the cold, maybe it would be better to change them out when the weather gets warmer or should the rest be left alone?
