Would love to see a tutorial on how to adjust and maintain hydraulic disc brakes. However I guess it would be a hard topic to cover because of the many systems out there.
Could you also make some videos about disc brakes? That would be interesting.
I have a GT Avalanche 2 with Tektro Auriga disc brakes on front and back. I am a beginner as you can tell, would it be possible to do some disc brake videos?
Are you going to show how to work on Disk Brake install and bleeding them? Like all the ABCs of Disk Brakes.
Hydraulic disc brakes (how to maintain, loosen air,adjust pads).
Please could you cover hydraulic brakes?
I was wondering if you could show me how to clean Hydraulic Disc Brake pistons? How to take them out of the caliper, cleaning them and placing it back together again.
Is there any chance you can put together a tutorial on servicing hydraulic disc brakes including replacing pads, adjustment and bleeding the lines.
I have a Scott FX35 Reflex MTB with Hayes SOLE hydraulic disc brake system front and rear, I would be grateful for any hints and tips on this subject.
Could you describe disk brake system?
How do I replace brake pads on hydraulic disc brakes? Do I need any special tools to remove the pads?
Avid Juicy 3 pad replacement please.
Maybe you could do a once over on Avid hydraulic systems?
You do great videos by the way.
How to fit hydraulic disc brakes in cycles. what is the cost of disc? which fluid is better, mineral or dot? please provide specification about rotor and disc size and dimensions.
What range of oil is used?
Would love it if you found the time to do a tutorial about disc brake overhaul.
I’m wondering if you have plans to upload a video on how to maintain hydraulic brakes? I understand how to do mechanical disk brakes but hydraulics seem to be a little more involved. They are smooth in comparison to mechanical; I’ll tell you that much!
I would like to see a disc brake adjustment/maintenance tutorial in the future.
Avid Juicy 3 pad replacement please.
Maybe you could do a once over on Avid hydraulic systems?

A tutorial on servicing hydraulic disc brakes including replacing pads, adjustment and bleeding the lines would be fantastic.
I have Shimano Deore hydraulics that use mineral oil. There is some info out there but it seems to differ in the method you should use for opening and closing the bleed nipple combined with squeezing the brake lever. Videos always seem to be made on bikes that clearly don’t even need bleeding! You never get a clear idea of how much fluid should be coming out to clear the air in a bad line and what size the air bubbles actually are that come out. I have attempted to bleed my brakes and they are better but the levers still come to close to the bar. I have been told this may be due to air still being in the line or the brake pad position needing adjusting as the pads are worn. How do you tell the difference?
Is a pair of pads that have mineral oil on them ruined or will soaking/wiping them with isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol, available from chemists) remove it and make them usable again?
I would like to see an video of how to cut and install hydraulic cables. Do you just use (cable cutters bike tool) and bleeding just taking care of everything? Juicys would be nice thanks.
I think it would be good to show how to adjust hydraulic disc brakes because i have them and i have no clue how to work on them.

How do you add DOT3/4 brake Fluid to Hayes Hydraulic disk Brake, and how do you bleed it?
I too, would love to see a tutorial on how to adjust my hydraulic brakes! It would be REALLY helpful!
Hi Alex, I’d love to see a couple of tutorials regarding disc brake systems (in order of preference)
– removing & replacing disc brake pads
– adjusting disc brake systems
– bleeding hydraulic disc brake systems
I understand there are many different typres & varieties of disc brake systems, which is no doubt why there is no videos to date – but there must be some common fundamentals to all which would be helpful to us mere morals who just need to be pointed in the right direction
