    great video. I'm going to be replacing the hose on my rear MT200 in about an hour and was really apprehensive about doing it. This video really helped, it looks pretty straight forward and easy to do.

    Great video thanks you got everything right except you leave the funnel on while you get the rest of the air out via pumping the lever. Silly to take it off before that then there's no need to clean off the overflow oil. Simply burp out the through the funnel again pumping the lever....

    Great instructional content. Loved the pace. Solid camera work, and a presenter with clarity and patience. I’m thinking with the right tools I might be able to take this on. Thanks!

    I would recommend one of those cutter/pin insertion tools for the brake line. Makes a much cleaner cut than housing cutters.

    I forgot to add that it helps to put dish soap or mineral oil on the barb before insertion.

    Hi, i would like to extend my hydraulic brake lines on my ebike, do you have a video on how to do that ?

      I don't have a video to do that - but there are ways to do this with inline splices. -Eddie

    Take a tapered centering punch and insert it in the cut end to "round out" the liner.

    Good video thanks! I reviewed the entire UA-cam and did not understand why there are 3 o-ring in the set... WHY?After all, you only need 2 o-ring.Or am I wrong?

    How easy is it to switch brakes with hydraulic lines, my bike turned up in the UK with front brake lever on the left hand side and not the right

    • @SimplyMountainBiking
      @SimplyMountainBiking  Рік тому

      Super easy! You'll need to bleed the system and route the lines opposite. You should have enough line length to do this. Good luck! -Eddie

    ...likely already commented but you cut it with "cable cutters" not housing cutters. Housing cutters are typically tools w a very sharp angled razor that wont crimp the housing as your cutters did and the ensure a more square cut.

    • @SimplyMountainBiking
      @SimplyMountainBiking  2 роки тому +3

      No one's commented that yet. I appreciate the tip. Been using cable cutters for years! Now I need some housing cutters. Thanks! -Eddie

      Not at all. The CN-10 crimps it only a little bit. -Eddie

      @@SimplyMountainBiking Intresting, because I couldn't do that, after I tried few times I've got the same result, the plastic tube inside the hose is squashed after cutting it with CN-10. Am I missing something? 🤔

    • @SimplyMountainBiking
      @SimplyMountainBiking  3 роки тому

      @@FlorinSirbu. The only thing I can think of is perhaps your cutters are dull and crush more than cut? The CN-10 is designed to be a scissor-cut, which is what's recommended for these type hoses. Let me know what you figure out! -Eddie

    I'm changing my sram hoses(Dot fluid). I've been looking for a video to find if I can push the fluid thru the line & evacuate the air thru the lever. Finally, I found your video. I wasn't sure if the air would go thru the lever or if I had to charge the hose before connecting to the lever. Thank you.

    Think you went a bit ott with the likes of removing the wheel, totally unnecessary to describe your position, loosing the wheel etc, you include everything except how you cook a dinner

    • @SimplyMountainBiking
      @SimplyMountainBiking  4 місяці тому +3

      Removing the wheel is so easy to do - and it allows free access to all angles of the caliper. If it takes seconds to remove, I go ahead and do it to make my life easier. This is the same when I work on other things too. -Eddie

    You could just remove old hose completely, and then run both new and old hoses between your fingers from one end to the other, to get the measurement. This way, you won't produce plastic zip tie waste.
    It's really messed up how comfortable people especially in US are, with using aircan chemicals and zipties, for the least important jobs.

      Should say, zero brake pressure at the lever
