Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
- In this REV Rides tutorial we show you how to bleed the brakes on a VSETT 10 +. Reasons for needing to bleed your brakes include:
The brake lever feeling spongy and not firm.
When it takes longer than usual for your scooter to stop.
If you have a leak anywhere in the brake lines and need to re-fill the brake fluid.
If your brake pads are worn out and you replace them.

As a bicycle mechanic for over 20 years this video is pretty good however I highly advise removing the brake pads any bit of mineral oil contamination into the pads will pretty much destroy them and cause your brakes to not work as well or squeal like a banshee.
OH NICE! That is a good tip. We will add this to our internal process and when we do another video on hydraulic brakes we can add this step. Thanks Travis!
@@RevRides360 No problem just got into the world of electric scooters and it’s kind of amazing how much of the technology crosses over to the mountain bike world. Great take videos by the way keep up the good work
@@traviseller3770 Hi Travis, just curious, any thoughts on what model of MAGURA e-MTB brakes would be a great upgrade for the Vsett 10+ ? I have 2 Vsett 10+ and one of them Ive upgraded the brakes with the SHIMANO MT200 brake kit, I'd like to go one further with my other scooter using Magura. Thank you.
@@N3xus_6sucks you never for a reply
Just wanted to say thanks for the video. It really helped me sort this out on my own as no shops in my area wanted to touch my vsett11+
If you want a quick and easy temporary fix I have found that you can get a massage gun and go ham on the lines to get the trapped air to the top instead of removing the whole caliper. I figured out that it does a good enough job to last you about a year and it takes exponentially less time the less handy you are with tools. I happen to have all the tools I could ever need but I don’t want to spend 2 hours bleeding brakes then realigning everything alongside the chance of stripping and losing screws (just how it is for me).
Thanks for sharing the idea. We'll have to try it out.
Please continue making Vsett10+ videos. Also where’s the best place to get vsett10+ accessories and replacement parts?
Thanks. We will keep it up. We have some accessories and all parts on our website. If there is anything specific you are looking for please email service@revrides.com.
Thanks guys. I just did it today:D

Thank you for the support Mark! We wouldn't be here without you!
Best technique for bleeding brakes.
Can you guys make a video on how to fix wheel wobbles.
Thank you
Hey there! Here's some tips on fixing wheel wobbles:
1. Have your air pump ready - we're about to deflate and re-inflate the tire.
2. Fully deflate the tire.
3. Using your hands, grab the "base" of the tire where it meets the rim, and massage the tire. The goal here is to loosen the tire from the rim in hopes that it'll seat straighter.
4. Repeat this process all around the tire.
5. Inflate the tire enough to feel the pressure, but where you can still massage the bead of the tire.
6. At this pressure, repeat steps 3 and 4.
7. Fully inflate the tire and give it a spin.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos brother, but my question is after you have removed and placed back the break when you go back up to the handlebar should you opening clothes or should I say squeeze the lever a bunch of times to make sure that there aren’t any more bubbles? I’m just asking I’m not trying to teach because I’m learning from you.
Could we get a link to the products used and tools needed or a list in the description instead? That would be much more useful than watching the same video over and over and over.
Sorry we are looking to get some for the site. amazon has a long list of them that will all work.
@@RevRides360 would it be worth posting affiliate links from Amazon so you can provide a service for us lazy ones and you get some money back for your services too.
Hi. Doesnt that mix old oil with new one? It looks like then I will have 50:50 mix of new and old oil in system.
Hi Azog, if you would like to push the old oil out and start from scratch you are welcome to!
@@RevRides360 what would that process look like?
So if i have nutt brakes i only need the finish line green, no red? Little confusing and there is no info on brake bleeding anywhere on the net. Its strange. You would think searching up dualtron thunder brake bleed kit would fetch some results but here i am lol
Correct, you only need the green for Nut brakes
@@RevRides360 what if it was red before? Would it mess up the breaks. Have no idea which one they used stock and this is my first time bleeding
How often it has to be change the oil for new in the system ?
i noticed you did not press the lever for bubbles? so its not necesary to press the lever to check bubbles?
We press the lever to help push the oil through!
@@RevRides360 i see because you did not show it on the video. your video tutorial is good but problem is. for us beginer's that iwant to learn your video seems to be fast and shortcut. if you can upload a more detailed video it will help me more thanks.
Hej! What's the brake bleeding screw dimension i mean give me something to know im buying the right one 😤 still thanks for the instruction I will need that just sad I couldn't buy anything for mine cuz I don't know what fits
Hey if you message us at contactus@revrides.com . They can get you the dimensions there!
Do you have to put oil in both syringes? It looked like you put some in the syringe by the break caliper?
Yes you do! This is to ensure no air enters the system.
@@RevRides360 This video was too rushed for noobies. Really bad.
@@_nom_ lol no it looks straight forward to me I got my vsett 10+ and tried it it worked for me took me like 30 minutes because I wanted to make sure I got it right but it worked
Now, how will I find the right sized syringe that screws onto my bleeder screw and brake caliper bleeder hole? or are the syringe universal size? I know how to bleed my MTB shimano mineral oil brakes, can I just use the same kit and bleeding method on these electric scooters ?
Hey! the screws are not universal. In the kit you purchase, make sure it states that it includes the right adapter for Shimano brakes. Most brake kits do include them
@@RevRides360 But you worked on a Vsett scooter and not Shimano brakes so, are you saying the Shimano brake kit actually works on Vsetts and similarly built scooters?
I dont know if Im missing it or what but I cant seem to find anywhere in your tutorial that mentions how much brake fluid oil you have prefilled both top and bottom syringes. So once u are already doing the bleeding process you mention the 15 ml in that top one but you were never clear on how much u started the bottom loaded with. Please clarify thank u!!
Tq for info
Hello , I have this scooter ;, is it time to bleed it if I have to press almost all the way until it breaks ,?my rear break is doing that .I’ve only had this scooter since December and I don’t use it a whole lot
Thankyou
Any mineral oil work for crappy zoom/vsett brakes? They often tiny leak in handle - car engine oil is a bit thicker too, helps prolong replacment. Good idea?
My caliper is leaking at the bango any suggestions on what wrong
Hey RevRides. I had to use a bolt extractor for the brake bleed screw that I accidentally stripped. What size of screw is the bleeding screw for order? Thank you
Email service@revrides.com and we can have our techs get the screw size for you.
Hi thanks for video 🙏 is this works for zero 11 x as well?
how about the Vsett 9+ is it the same procedure?
The 9+ has cable brakes so does not need bleeding. However, cables stretch so you may need to tighten the brakes from time-to-time. See the 24 second mark on this video: ua-cam.com/video/zun9d0k2UYM/v-deo.html
So you're not actually removing the old oil in the lines and then putting in new oil?! You're basically making sure the lines are filled with oil and thats it??
Can I use the green brake fluid instead of the red? Will it damage my brake if I will use that?
Feel free to reach out to us (Service@REVRides.com) for further assistance!
Can CHUMXINY mineral oil be used for Vsett10+ branded brakes? performing first bleed
We recommend using Shimano Red brake fluid!
where can i get this kit for the scooter ??
I was bleeding and put new oil IN my dualtron but when brake it Comes smoke fro the brake . What is this i noticed it direktly
Are you sure you put the correct oil in it and check your break pads they may need to be replaced
What happens if you don't do this procedure?
well no breaks
You should bleed your brakes if you're finding your brakes aren't very responsive, which is usually caused by air bubbles in the hydraulic system. Bleeding the brakes is the process of removing these air bubbles to ensure effective hydraulic compression and restoring the responsiveness of the brakes.
@@VelocityLP well said!
@@VelocityLP how often does this happen/is this process needed?
Me personally I don’t mind not bleeding my breaks if it was the front break because I dont use it as much but because it’s the rear break I need and I use that a lot more than the front I thinks necessary or u could turn your electronic braking all they way up just be careful because it will throw you off the scooter
1:00 - 1:14 does all of those things you mentioned come with the bleed kit?
Yes they do here is the link! (www.amazon.com/CYCEARTH-Bicycle-Shimano-Hydraulic-Professional/dp/B07H2DQMMQ/ref=sr_1_2?crid=Y20K51YTZ5E5&keywords=cycearth%2Bbrake%2Bbleed%2Bkit%2Bzoom&qid=1647878290&sprefix=cycearth%2Bbrake%2Bbleed%2Bkit%2Bzoom%2B%2Caps%2C122&sr=8-2&th=1)
Perfect question! Right to the point. Didn't even have to write it.
Another question? are all vsett 10+ brakes zoom hydrolic? Does zoom brakes use shamano oil and nut brakes use bleeder brake fluid? Because I think bought the bleeder brake fluid along with the shamano oil thinking I was gonna use both but it seems you only used the shamano oil.
@@707zacbuster my vsett 10+ came with nutt brakes
Which adapter did you use for the caliper? I tried all of them and none don't screw in like the top handle bar did
Hi guys, I have a leakage somewhere around silver hose end, showed in 1:30 and 1:43 of this clip. How can I fix that? I assume there are some silicone o-rings inside or something similar... How can I get new set of these o-rings? Does anyone know size of them?
Thanks for reaching out! Follow up up with us at Service@REVRides.com for further assistance!
@@RevRides360 I have the same issue, but i''m from Europe. Can you just tell what's the solution to this problem? Can it be fixed without new o ring ? Or if i need o ring, which size do i need?
How often should I bleed the breaks? Or does it depend on how often I ride?
For best assistance, please follow up with us via email (Service@REVRides.com)
6-12 months
Where can I get that kit the same one please
Please reach out to us at Service@REVRides.com for further assistance! Cheers!
Is this the same as zero 10x??
brake bleeding is pretty universal
Hello friends me here I have a question I have the zoom break is the Bango nut on caliper supposed to move the break line moves I think it does seem the part when you moved the caliper
What about 11+ is it same

Man that looks Complicated.
The video was not though out.
Right has anyone did this successfully yet I’m watching it because my rear brake won’t stop me as quickly as it did when I first got if I was my front brake I wouldn’t be worried about it so much because I barely use it but because it’s my rear break of course I use that more when I ride I’m tempted to not bleed my rear break and just turn my electronic breaking up
It’s not really after you’ve done it once. The most complicated part is assembling the syringe correctly.
In description it's again stupidly nuts ,they claim reasons for needing to fill brake fluid,
- You have a leak in a brake line & need to refill the system and never mentioned too first replace the failed line then refill said low binder,drop the anchor system.
Sorry sir, could you provide us a video on how you think the video should be done. We apologize that its not up to your standards Feel free to Send us an email if you would like us to provide tech support provide your order number and email to service@revrides.com
