Excellent demo, staight to the point without needless bullshit

[@michaelmccafferty3]

Straight to the point,no bullshit with syringe….great video

[@robiveevee840]

I saw your video over a year ago and said "i better get that bleeder kit" , well today i finally needed it , and your instruction worked perfect , I love it !!! thanks for the hack !

[@TwOnEightt]

Thank you for this. I’m not very mechanically inclined by nature so videos like this really help out!

[@sabeehbigboii6439]

easiest tutorial I was looking for and this is the easiest one I found!. cheers mate

[@circuspony72]

Nice to finally see somebody demo a partial brake bleed or simply adding fluid. A full bleed may NOT always be necessary. I will try this "add" method on bike this weekend. Thanks!

[@teenafithian3561]

Thank you. I’m going to try this. Update: We did both of our Mountain Bikes and it worked great! Saved us $$. Thanks again.

[@AI_Dave]

Your weather makes me wanna cry. Great tutorial, also light and funny!

[@kylecantu5574]

Love this vid.
I've only refilled my back brake fluid a few times but I always come to this video for reference.
Super simple.

[@davidbrooks960]

Did this technique a couple of weeks ago. Worked like a charm.

[@jamiewilliams7903]

As stated below, was looking for a top up video and not a full break bleed, nicely done !!!

[@trangoadvisory]

This took all the intimidation out of bleeding brakes for me. I'd rather pull the brake lever then mess around with all that other stuff in the package. Thanks for the great tip! Oh and PS, my issue was created by the exact problem you described except I loaned the bike to a friend and that's how it came back.

[@official6045]

been searching for over 3 days now and finally a guy that can actually explain it and that doesn’t cost over $100 for a bleed,thank u,this was so easy to understand

[@mtbnoob6464]

Glad I could help!

[@sakusilventoinen2711]

i am saying same

[@emigrant4life]

I'll tell you more - you can use a syringe and Johnson's baby baby oil

[@marshallschmitt5397]

Worked perfectly. I read an article and out advised to tilt the brake 45 degrees forward squeeze the brake untried bubbles stop then 45 degrees the other direction repeat until bubbles stop and then back to highest position and finish. I did have additional bubbles come up at the 45 degree tilts.

[@goodlife5708]

I haven’t tried this method yet I’m gonna buy the kit online,however you got my subscription and notification, keep the hard work and keep it simple as always.

[@darrenbradwell3957]

cheers mate this is what i have been looking for

[@anton8692]

[@diskgrind3410]

Simple, easily explained. Thanks for sharing this.

[@cadencherry6290]

I was a beginner to mountain bikes, and at the beginning I decided to put dot three brake fluid in it and guess how that turned out not good bottom of the brake line these tips worked thank you

[@gusmitchell4068]

That is such a well thought out, easy to understand video, cheers

[@stevendennis2079]

Did it as he describes and it worked! Thanks "Bad Boy", you saved me grief and money by not going to a bike shop!

[@mtbnoob6464]

Glad I could help! Keep on shredding!

[@ellisdiaz4611]

man you just saved me almost 100 dollars .thanks so much

[@seardna3224]

worked perfectly. Thanks so much!

[@nerotrinidad2608]

Thanks for this demo....I can do it now. Watching from Philippines

[@johnreese3762]

Judging from the condition of your grips, you could do a crash and burn video! Great info, thanks!!!

[@mtbnoob6464]

Haha for sure! What's funny is I crashed and cut that huge chunk out of the right grip the first day I got them. After that haven't actually ruined them too much!

[@macfin4862]

Thank you so much for this. Ive been wondering why the hell i need to drain all the oil from my brakes when they're just a little spongey. This is a great solution

[@MrEGOMACHINE]

Thanks. First video and easiest process.

[@ClayLowe]

This worked a charm. Very helpful.

[@zerokewl88]

Hey man, super simple thank you.. I was wondering during how to do this upgrading my shimano brakes on my Surron Ebike.. same type of MTB brakes so this helped me alot. Cheers !!!

[@theadventuresofraz8706]

Cheers bro. Like your flow!

[@user-hk9zw1jq8k]

That was a good video and made it very simple and easy to watch. Fantastic

[@mtbnoob6464]

Glad I could help! Keep on shredding!

[@dylanseaman5163]

Thx had to change it up. Removed brake cable and then pumped brake lever to pull fluid into reservoir top side. Slower but it works...and the cheap American kit is really good. Thx again.

[@adhamdavlatov]

awesomejob dude. thank you

[@kmom777]

Thanks man the only video I understood

[@selmerd]

Worked like a charm. The best part is leaving all the extra stuff in the package and never using it! And it does take some persistence and a lot of squeezes. And jostling the bike a little, which dislodged some of the air bubbles I guess, but gently so the oil doesn't slosh out of the funnel.

[@CmdrTigerKing]

eeasy wayto do it is instead of fulls squeezes the wshole time.... literally flick the handle ,you dont need to movei t much... just enough to cause internal movement... it works the best ... to make it even better tilt the bike to the sides as well as turning the handlebars to the max...will get a ton of air out

[@CrudelyMade]

I didn't even know this was an option vs a full bleed! as a beginner, I appreciate seeing a simpler test before doing more complicated stuff that might be unnecessary yet. thanks!!

[@oystercatcher943]

Very good. Booked my bike at the bike shop to do this after messing it up. I had successfully done Shimano brakes with a kit but found it very difficult. tried again on another bike following this video. Nearly done it. 15-20 mins of getting bubbles out and back brake working again but still rather soft. Another go on the bubbles and I should be there. I now see the Tektro brake reservoir may have 2 fill points and I was using one a big large so got some leakage. Will try next time with another fill point

[@LAMB53087]

Super awesome video.
Thanks for posting.

[@madpaddy73]

hi thanks so simple to do it tightened right up !!!

[@jayvee962]

Nice and simple! Thx man

[@aitokyou]

very helpful and simple thank u buddy

[@dougphins]

Great job sir!!!!

[@Kris-jk9mq]

I was able to Burp my Rear brake without a funnel or ANY special tools .. Just leveled lever, used a normal syringe to keep the 'hole' where the screw was full of fluid as bubbles came up as a beat the Lever 50 times fast.. Little messy, but easy cleaning and worked like a charm!

[@TonyOgilvie]

great job, thank you!

[@davidh6300]

Yes your video did help. Thanks.

[@mojojuicejoe1]

This...this was not the video I wanted to see. But, it is the video I needed to see. Lol

[@grahamsmith5768]

Fabulous filming and information. Well done, your a top guy.

[@FPVmarko]

Any mineral oil work? If tiny leak in handle - car engine oil is a bit thicker too, helps prolong replacment. Good idea?

[@aliiseed1897]

Thanks to u bro

[@caelainndillonhughes4122]

great! cheers👍👍

[@alexandrudobos8567]

Thanks dude

[@Deadmare]

Thanks. I was search all over for a way to tighten my breaks as my front brake was not stopping the tire. It never accursed to my that my fluid was just low 😂

[@richperkins5192]

Thank you brother. Where do I put that bad boy after I got those first two bad boys out the ways?

[@dareks5048]

Thank you :)

[@rdkuless]

when you pump the lever to get the HD fluid down in the hose to the caliper.. use a vibrator (for massage ) to help get the bubbles out of the line.. You can rubber band the vibrator to the hose just blow handlebar height. That works well.. bubbles come right up to the reservoir funnel...

[@CmdrTigerKing]

You could pull the lever prior to removing the funnel. Then before releasing reinsert the bleedscrew... that way you shouldn leak any or a lot less since the oil is being sucked downn instead of just chillin at the top...ive never done it just a thought

[@majidtv9695]

I like the video so very easy can I ask if the brake pad need to pull out from brake caliper when we add the oil mineral

[@mtbnoob6464]

Make sure that they are all the way in when adding the oil, preferably with wheel on, otherwise it will leak out.

[@wannesschelkens6991]

Does this also work on dropbar levers (GRX)?

[@doughighbridge458]

great video, will this trick work on any hydraulic brake , I have Avid Elixers and wondering if the threads in funnels is the same?

[@mtbnoob6464]

It definitely should! The funnels all come in general kits, so I believe they should fit pretty much any hydraulic MTB brake system.

[@TRIPLETW0WNZ]

You just saved me 100 bucks from sending my bike to a mechanic

[@mtbnoob6464]

Glad to help!

[@bassevankasteel4121]
