Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Avid Lever Internals Service Kit for Elixir CR R 5: Restore and Enhance Performance! by Daniel Taylor

Revainrating 5 out of 5

LONG LOCKRING PLIERS REQUIRED. OR JUST MUSCLE

Anyone who loves hydraulics should learn how to bleed and service their brakes. I can only imagine how much money someone could spend fixing/upgrading mechanics if they don't know how to do it themselves. Anyway, everything is included, even some parts I don't recognize (extra plastic washers?). The hardest part is getting the piston out of the snap ring. YOU NEED LONG CIRCLIP PLIERS to make the job easier. I didn't have circlip pliers, so I just clamped the body in a vise and pulled on the plastic circlip until it broke, which is fine because you replace all those parts anyway.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly Packaging
