Designed for home mechanics and professional technicians alike, this kit provides the precise tools necessary to maintain optimal brake performance by removing trapped air and ensuring proper piston function. While it includes all the high-quality fittings and syringes required for a professional-grade flush, users should note that the necessary Maxima Mineral Oil must be purchased separately to complete the service.

FAQs

Does this kit include mineral oil?

No, this specific kit (SSP8031007) does not include Maxima Mineral Oil; it must be purchased separately.

Can I use this for SRAM Code or Level brakes?

No, this kit is specifically designed for Maven and DB8 systems using mineral oil. Code and Level brakes typically use DOT fluid.

What is the purpose of the bleed blocks?

Bleed blocks are inserted into the caliper to keep the pistons in the correct position and prevent them from moving while the system is open.

How often should I bleed my brakes?

It is recommended to bleed your brakes at least once a year, or whenever you feel a change in lever firmness or stopping power.

How do I clean the syringes after use?

Flush the syringes multiple times with clean isopropyl alcohol, allow them to air dry completely, and store them in a clean area.

Troubleshooting

Brake lever feels spongy after bleeding

Ensure all air bubbles have been evacuated from the master cylinder and that the syringes are held at the correct angle to encourage air to rise.

Fluid leaking around the bleed port

Verify that the fitting is fully threaded and the O-ring is seated correctly; do not overtighten, as this can strip the threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Specifically engineered for SRAM Maven and DB8 hydraulic systems
  • Includes all necessary mechanical tools like crowfoot and Torx
  • Bleeding Edge fitting prevents fluid mess during maintenance
  • Ensures factory-level braking performance and lever feel

Cons

  • Maxima Mineral Oil is not included in this specific kit
  • Requires mechanical aptitude for proper system bleeding
  • Not compatible with DOT fluid-based SRAM brakes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This kit is exclusively compatible with SRAM Maven and DB8 hydraulic brakes which utilize mineral oil. Do not attempt to use this kit with SRAM road or mountain brakes that require DOT 5.1 or DOT 4 fluid, as the seals are incompatible. After each use, flush the syringes and fittings with clean isopropyl alcohol to remove residual mineral oil and prevent seal degradation. Store the kit in a cool, dry place inside a sealable container to keep the fittings free of dust and debris, which could otherwise contaminate your brake system during the next service.
