Review on 🚡 BUCKLOS Mountain Bike Hydraulic Disc Brakes, Aluminum Alloy Right Front and Left Rear Brake Levers, Compatible with PM Adapter and 53.1-inch Rear Cable by Paul Ajayi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easily changeable brake levers!

These brakes were expensive so I bought 2 pairs to upgrade the brakes on some old mountain bikes. Changing the lever took less than 5 minutes and I didn't spill a drop of brake fluid. All you need is an 8mm wrench. And something to lean the lever against with the open end facing up. I was willing to bleed the brakes if needed but the fluid wouldn't go away. Here's what I did.1. Remove the rubber covers.2. Use an 8mm wrench to loosen the nut. You only need a wrench to loosen the nut, you can unscrew the rest by hand. Do not tighten the hose yet.3. Repeat step 2 on the other handle.4. Pull off the hose, hold the hose end and the thread end of the handle up.5. Disconnect the hose from the second handle and replace it with the one you removed earlier.6. Connect another hose and handle.7. Put on the rubber caps and you're done! I gave these brakes 4 stars because they don't hold up as well as I expected. They do their job, just not as well as I had hoped. I used brake discs, that might play a role. I'm still glad I bought them.
