Mechanic Clinic at Boise Bicycle Project | Disk Brake Bleeds

Learn bike mechanic skills in BBP's mechanic clinics!

If your disc brakes feel spongy or inconsistent, they might need a bleed! This hands-on class will teach you how to properly bleed hydraulic disc brakes, whether they use mineral oil or DOT fluid. We'll cover the tools required, step-by-step bleeding techniques, and common troubleshooting tips for ensuring firm and responsive braking. Perfect for riders looking to maintain their own bikes or gain confidence in hydraulic brake maintenance. The bleeding example will only be for Shimano-style systems.
