This seemed pretty straight forward man. I wonder if this will work on the Talaria as well it should they seem to have the same breaks system. Right on man gonna keep this vid in mind for when it's time to do mine 🤘🏻
@@VoltedAdventures Dude your way is so much better straight forward I seen some dudes bleeding there breaks and got like tubes all over the place gotta pump the leaver and shizz etc 🤪 you make this video it's one of the most easiest way to do it that's why I like your content man you make diy easy enough to understand and no Bs 🤣👍
Hey man, thanks for this tutorial. I purchased the same kit and did as you did here, seems to have to air left in my brake but I have to hit it twice in order to brake. Any idea what I do wrong ? At least, now it locks the wheel when I press twice, but it barely slows the bike on the first press. Rear break !
@@davideinstein7887 theres a small allen screw you can adjust where the brake lever is.... this will adjust the travel of the lever, just keep in mind its reverse thread on that screw.... as you twist it youll see the level move.... hope this helps
Hey - this is really helpful. Think we used an attachment that was too small as when we pressed the syringe fluid leaked out around the nozzle. The bolts for the reservoir were stripped when we got the bike. Do you know where to get replacements and what size? We also stripped one of the bolts on the rear brake caliper and have a temporary bolt in there that fits but the head is fatter so it sticks ous. I can't find info on what the right one is. Thanks in advance
Glad this helped u! 🙌🏼 im not sure what size those screws are but i found this for u, hope it helps cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0013/7697/6966/files/Surron_LBX_Parts_Catalogue.pdf?13210828469162667942
@@VoltedAdventures Thanks. Amazingly this doesn't have info on the brake calipers or the fluid reservoirs. I took the originals into a down and dirty plumbing supply store and they confirmed they were M6 screws but were an unusual length and the flat, low-profile head is also an odd size. He said they ought to be stainless steel since they are used outside but they are actually are an aluminum alloy with a coat of protective paint on them. I'm none the wiser sadly.
@@LittleCranberry might want to look into a used set of brakes (a lot of people upgrade and sell their original brakes for cheap) that way youll have those screws... I know its not ideal but it might be worth a try...
@@VoltedAdventures I thought so. The line of the front break is not too long so I guess 3 syringe fillings should be enough? Can the brake fluid reservoir being too full or empty cause that problem? I saw a video where they empty it before the process.
@@janifisc 3 runs should def do it... you should also NOT press the syringe the whole way as to not introduce air into the system, I wonder if thats what happened...tbh this is something that I would need to have in front of me to take a look
Did you unscrew the top one and then the bottom? If so thats why... even tho you have the clip locked on the top one... You need to do the bottom one first, lock the clip. then unscrew the top one...
@@VoltedAdventures no I done the bottom one first, I stripped the system and noticed the hose didn’t have the little rubber seal on so replaced it and got it bled thank god
which method did you use to bleed? I personally dislike the "back-and-forth" 2 syringe method, I prefer to do it how i did in the video... but it seems like you need to add oil and try to re-bleed, you may have let some more air in the line
@@alephwang1740 not sure man, a lot of people used my way and had success... your line may have more air then usual or something.... you need to unscrew the bottom one forst and close it, then undo the top one.... if you open both, air will enter the line... i would try again
Ive got 4000 miles on my bike and was curious, im thinking of moving the rear brake to the right side and front to the left like a normal bicycle. Has anyone done this?? Pros or cons.. im just afraid my muscle memory will need to be retrained. But i remember when i first got the bike i was on dirt and accidentally grabbed a bunch of front brake on the right trying to slide out the rear and then my front wheel washed out and i broke 2 ribs. Its because after years of riding mountain bikes with the rear brake on the right side.
This reminds me of the time I was in Austria and borrowed a friend’s bike we were in the mountains and I went to pull the back brake to skid to a stop and guess what they set their bikes up backwards from what I’m used to in Uk! It wasn’t a pleasant experience 😅
Great timing. I was struggling with the dual plunger method but I just tried it your way and got my brakes done on the first try. thanks
Thats awesome! glad it helped! 🤙🏼🙌🏼

yessir should def be the same, and I like this way way better then the other method...🤙🏼

@@S416RE I appreciate it bro, thank you 🙌🏼
@@VoltedAdventures Respect 👊🏻
The type of bike doesn’t matter. All Shimano/Magura hydraulic brake system will work the same
you're the man! thank you!

Very helpful brother!
💯
Glad it did, Thanks for watching 🤙🏼

try running a second syringe thru, hopefully that takes out all of the air
I'm having the same issue, for right now I have my back brake disabled and my regenerative braking turned up to make up for the stopping distance
What mm is the bleed screw mines been carved out Need a new one
Thax for the information just got my sur ron today ,what tires u recommend for the street use
If youre gonna ride streets only I would go for the moto tires, not 100% sure which brands is the best...
This helped so much, bro. Is there any way I can control the free stroke?
I'm glad this helped 🫡 what do you mean by free stroke?
@@VoltedAdventures the amount of travel of the brake.
@@davideinstein7887 theres a small allen screw you can adjust where the brake lever is.... this will adjust the travel of the lever, just keep in mind its reverse thread on that screw.... as you twist it youll see the level move....
hope this helps
so the rear part of the brake that doesn’t have the o ring, would It be good I installed one of my own or should I put it back how it came?
I would just put back how it was... if it aint broke dont fix it style lol 🙌🏼
@@VoltedAdventures great! Thanks for your reply and I love your videos. Keep up the good work!
@@unicycle9389 Thank you 🙏🏼🫡
Don't you need to remove the wheels and brake pads to insert a block into the caliper? To get correct spacing and lever travel...
Im just bleeding the brakes here not changing caliper... and you dont ned to remove the brake to install a new caliper anyways...

Where did you get that seat 🔥
Thanks, 🫡I made it myself, how to video on my channel
Yeah surrom brake bleeding is way if u dotn let air in lol
Hope u had fun doing so buddy
If you do it the way I showed, no air will enter the system...
@@VoltedAdventures the first time I ever did it I got air but yeah buddy good way also
@@roxythorphotography did you use the two syringe method?
@@VoltedAdventures yeah and the way u did
@@roxythorphotography 🤷🏻♂
Do you know which size the fittings of the sur-ron stock brakes are? I ordered a shimano kit but it does not fit 😅
I dont know the exact size but it was included with the kit I linked in the description
@@VoltedAdventuresThank you. I ordered another kit from amazon and it had the right fittings 😊
Whey not reverse the process so the bottle can sit on the floor?
easier to push the air bubbles up than trying to push them down...
Where did you get your seat?
I made it myself, heres how I did it ruclips.net/video/3ohS7wJlz-g/видео.html
Lets say im juts putting some colored caps on my brake resevoirs. If i keep them level can i simply swap them or do i need to bleed the brakes after
should be able to just swap them....
@@VoltedAdventures awesome thanks that's what I was hoping
@@MotoAlias yea just make sure do to them separately. dont open them up together or else oil will leak...
I tried this method and repeated the process 3 times on the front brake but the leavers feel as loose as before. What did I do wrong?
Did all the air bubble come out of the line?
@@VoltedAdventures I thought so. The line of the front break is not too long so I guess 3 syringe fillings should be enough? Can the brake fluid reservoir being too full or empty cause that problem? I saw a video where they empty it before the process.

@@janifisc That would def help
I cant get the oil to go into the brake caliper for my rear brake
Same bro lmao it won’t push at all
As soon as I unscrew the bottom all the fluid just drains even tho I’ve got both clips locked, I give up
Did you unscrew the top one and then the bottom? If so thats why... even tho you have the clip locked on the top one...
You need to do the bottom one first, lock the clip. then unscrew the top one...
@@VoltedAdventures no I done the bottom one first, I stripped the system and noticed the hose didn’t have the little rubber seal on so replaced it and got it bled thank god
@@Bawsack121 nice 🫡
My brake has a torx screw for the screw on the lever … I don’t know what to do I can’t find the size I need
home depot / lowes
“I have a different screw.. I don’t know what to do?”
Bruh…. Go buy the right tool! 🤦🏻♂️
i bled my brakes twice and its got no brake pressure now. what should I do?

but it seems like you need to add oil and try to re-bleed, you may have let some more air in the line
@@VoltedAdventures o used the same one in your video. I have to clip both ends at the end and screw them off then the screws on quickly roght

Def doable but I guess its down to personal pref. If youre already used to the rear brake on the left I would just keep it
@VoltedAdventures thanx man. Not even sure the cable is long enough to move over.
This reminds me of the time I was in Austria and borrowed a friend’s bike we were in the mountains and I went to pull the back brake to skid to a stop and guess what they set their bikes up backwards from what I’m used to in Uk! It wasn’t a pleasant experience 😅
I’m 1500 miles in and haven’t bleed mine yet
nice 🙌🏼
What fluid comes in the surron stock ??
Some generic brake fluid
