The BKD-1 Hydraulic Brake Bleed Kit will bleed most models of DOT fluid-based hydraulic bicycle disc brakes, including models made by SRAM, Hayes, Formula, and Hope. Bleeding of hydraulic brakes removes air bubbles and contaminants from the braking system, for long-lasting components and peak performance.
The BKD-1 is build for the rigors of daily commercial use, and includes two syringes, hoses with shutoff clips, multi-size bleed blocks and a unique attachable syringe mount, as well as multiple hose fittings to fit the multiple standards found on hydraulic bicycle brake systems:
M5x0.8mm (Silver) | Hayes |
Cone | Hayes |
Compression Sleeve | Hope |
Bleeding Edge-Specific | SRAM Bleeding Edge |
M5x0.8mm (Red) | SRAM |
M6x1.0mm (Black) | Universal |
The BKD-1 includes 1 replacement hose and a full set of replacement seals, and every part is replaceable and available from Park Tool. Housed in a rugged storage case.
NOTE: The BKD-1 is for DOT fluid-based hydraulic bicycle brake systems only. DOT fluid and mineral oil should never be mixed in the brake system or in their respective service tools. Cross contamination of brake fluid may cause seal failure which may result in brake failure. For brakes using mineral oil use the Park Tool BKM-1 Hydraulic Brake Bleed Kit - Mineral Oil.
