People with these Force hydraulic brakes may want to peel back the rubber shifter hoods and make sure there aren't any brake fluid leaks under there. There's a seam on the side where brake fluid was leaking out on mine when I fully squeezed the brake lever. I was able to tightened down the 4 reservoir cover bolts a bit and this seems to have helped. Cleaned and dried with alcohol. But that seam still gets a little damp with brake fluid when I pull the brake lever, which doesn't seem normal? This is only happening on the right (rear) brake.

I'd appreciate any feedback if you're seeing this on yours or not. I do my own wrenching, but haven't worked on these brakes before. I'm reviewing the SRAM service manual.
