About the Fluid
DOT 5.1 fluid is compatible with all DOT fluid systems, including DOT 3 and DOT 4. It offers a higher boiling point to prevent power loss on long descents, better low-temperature performance, and reduced service intervals.
100ml of fluid is enough for 2–3 standard bleeds of front and rear brakes. If your fluid hasn't been replaced in over 2 years, we recommend a full flush for optimal braking performance — a complete front and rear flush uses approximately 100ml.
Good to Know
This kit is NOT compatible with -
DB8 and Maven: Use different fittings and require Mineral Oil, not DOT fluid. See our SRAM Mineral Oil Bleed Kit for those models.
Formula Cura: The Bleed Kit is suitable but not Dot 5.1 Brake Fluid. Formula Cura use Formula branded Mineral Oil.
