Instructions to install our Ultra Light Hydraulic Brake Kit

**Important, Do not bleed kit while it is installed on the bike. Bleed brake before installation.
**There can be no tension on the master cylinder arm while bleeding.
** Use only DOT 5 Brake fluid in this kit.

1. Bend, grind, or cut away as needed, the bracket that held the old brake cable/spring. So there is room for the linkage

2. Cut brake line to desired length and install brake line.  To install brake lines, push the line into the connector on the master cylinder and the caliper. To remove the lines, press on the green fitting on the master cylinder or the silver fitting on the caliper, with two fingers
and pull the line to release.

3. Next hold the caliper on the rotor and adjust the brake pads using an Allen wrench and turning the bolts on the side of the caliper. You want to adjust the brake pads so they are almost touching the rotor, without any drag.

 

4. Pull the kit off the caliper and bleed the kit. Please refer to the bleeding instructions listed on the support page.

 

5. After bleeding install rear brake bracket and caliper.

6.  Install front bracket, master cylinder and linkage and adjust linkage. By adjusting the linkage this will adjust your pedal travel.

7. Adjust collar on master cylinder using an Allen wrench. This will adjust your pedal travel.
