Hydraulic Disc Brake Bleed Kit — Mineral Oil, Metal Joint
Everything you need to bleed a spongy hydraulic brake lever back to a firm, confident bite — at home, in under an hour.
Why Your Brakes Need Bleeding
Hydraulic disc brakes work by pushing fluid through a sealed line to squeeze the caliper pistons onto the rotor. Over time, tiny air bubbles work their way into that fluid — from normal wear, a disconnected hose, or just months of riding. Air compresses under pressure where fluid doesn't, so the moment air gets into the system, your lever starts to feel soft or spongy, and you have to pull it further and further before the brake actually bites.
Bleeding the brake means pushing fresh fluid through the system to flush that trapped air out, restoring a firm, predictable lever feel. It's routine maintenance, not a repair — most riders do it every 6–12 months, or any time a lever starts feeling soft.
What's in the Kit
| ✔️ 2 x brake oil syringes with orange finger-grip handles |
| ✔️ 2 x 60ml bottles of LeBycle mineral oil |
| ✔️ 10 x brass oiling adapters, plus 1 extra plastic side-port adapter |
| ✔️ 1 x Shimano-specific anti-drop pin |
| ✔️ 1 x translucent measuring funnel/oil cup |
| ✔️ 3 x piston spacer blocks (for dual-piston and 4-piston calipers) |
| ✔️ Set of Allen keys |
| ✔️ Disposable gloves, O-rings, and rubber bands |
One Set, Two Syringes, Zero Guesswork
This kit is built around the standard two-syringe bleed method: one syringe pushes fresh oil in from the caliper, the other draws air and old fluid out from the lever. The ergonomically shaped syringe handles are designed to sit comfortably in your hand so you can control the flow smoothly instead of fighting the plunger, and the translucent barrels let you watch exactly how much fluid you're moving and see when clean oil (with no air bubbles) is finally coming through.
The oil bottle itself is also translucent, engineering-grade plastic — you can see your remaining oil level at a glance, and the modular plug-and-play connector locks onto the adapters with a secure seal that's designed to prevent the leaks and spills that usually make brake bleeding a messy job.
Wide Brake Compatibility
The 10 brass adapters cover the connection threads used across most mainstream hydraulic disc brakes on the market today, and LeBycle states this kit supports oiling for over 200 different brake models. A dedicated Shimano anti-drop pin is included to improve the seal and stability specifically on Shimano systems, and an extra plastic adapter is included for brakes with side-mounted oiling ports that don't take the standard brass fitting.
The 3 piston spacer blocks fit road and mountain bike calipers with dual-piston or 4-piston layouts — including SRAM, Shimano (standard and ZEE), and other common calipers — holding the pistons safely in place whenever the pads are out, regardless of what fluid the brake actually runs.
⚠️ Check Your Brake's Fluid Type First
This kit includes mineral oil, which is correct for brakes designed around mineral oil — most Shimano, Tektro, and many other systems. Some brands (SRAM/Avid, Hope, Formula, and others) use DOT hydraulic fluid instead, which is chemically different and not interchangeable. Using mineral oil in a DOT system (or vice versa) can damage the internal seals. Check your brake manufacturer's specification before bleeding — the piston spacer blocks and adapters in this kit are fine to use either way, but only use the included mineral oil on a mineral-oil system.
The General Bleed Process
| 1️⃣ Insert the piston spacer block where the pads normally sit, so the pistons can't overextend while the pads are out. |
| 2️⃣ Fill one syringe with mineral oil and attach it to the caliper's bleed port using the matching brass adapter. |
| 3️⃣ Attach the second (empty) syringe to the lever's bleed port at the top of the system. |
| 4️⃣ Slowly push fresh oil up from the caliper while gently drawing from the lever, watching for air bubbles in the line. |
| 5️⃣ Once oil flows through clean and bubble-free, close both ports, remove the syringes, and check lever feel before removing the spacer block. |
Exact bleed port locations and procedure vary by brake model — always check your brake manufacturer's specific bleed instructions alongside this general process.
💡 Pro Tip
Keep the lever at a slight downward angle and the caliper below it while bleeding — air naturally rises, so gravity helps trapped bubbles travel up and out through the lever-side syringe instead of settling somewhere in the line.
