AkuskaUK Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Hi everyone!, i was just wondering since im new to the scene again, how do i bleed hydraulic brakes? i have Magura HS33 rear clamps and an Tektro Auriga Comp front disk, i pull the leavers and nothing happens. i would like very much if someone could help me! Also i have been wondering, what does a brake booster do? should i get one? i have an Onza T-Rex and i was looking at getting a 2 or 4 bolt booster, what difference would the 2 or 4 bolt make?, and would it increase my brake power or just add weight? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance! It depends if your frame is 2-bolt or 4-bolt. 2-bolt is basically the standard V mounts you find on most mountain bikes. And to bleed your HS33 i would water bleed, makes the brake alot more responsive. Follow this guide... Revolver's Bath Bleed.

My frame is an Onza T-Rex with Magura HS33 on the back, i was thinking about putting on a brake booster on the back, thanks for the reply though!
