Great set, great packaging, easy to use

I like this set. The box it comes in is perfect for storage and safe keeping. After watching YouTube videos on how to bleed properly, these tools worked great to get my SRAM code brakes working as best they could. It's not the cheapest upgrade kit but you get what you pay for and it's a pro level kit at a fair price and I'll be using it for years.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Not the best

Works but takes some getting used to

Good quality syringes and caliper adapter, one Avid adapter is missing an o-ring. Some of the practical functions gave me problems. The included 90 degree wire attachment, which is designed to hold the caliper syringe upright, does not fit properly, allowing the syringe to rotate freely. The collette compression fittings on the adapter push out with very little pressure and won't let fluid through, but they appear to be able to let air through. Tube valves are comfortable and appear to seal…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Some defects

WILL NOT FIT SHIMANO DEORE XT 8120 TWO PISTON

The spacer block that comes with it is too small for Shimano 8120 Deore XT two piston calipers. This can twist the pistons in the bore, jam them and destroy the caliper. The kit is otherwise good, but even a fully seated and bolted block only rides halfway over the large piston, and when pumping, the pressure from the levers is enough to force the ceramic piston out of alignment. If you're lucky you can return it without breaking the seals. I was not. $250 down the drain. I keep it, but every…

Works great and will last

I bought a $30 Revain kit last year and only used it a couple of times before it all fell apart and made the job difficult. The seals on the plungers in the syringes failed and the tubing began to slip off the ends of the syringes. I've spent a lot of time and mineral oil on the last few jobs I've done with it. I started looking for a bleed kit that was comparable to what the bike shop uses and this is where I ended up. I love the check valves on the hoses and how they all thread together to…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Hard to say
