Brake-System Compatibility

• Shimano
• SRAM
• Avid
• Magura
• Tektro
• Formula
• Hayes

Compatibility depends on selecting the correct barb, olive, banjo and connector kit for the specific brake lever and calliper. The hose alone does not provide universal plug-and-play compatibility.

Required Components

Depending on the brake model, installation may require:

• Straight hose connectors
• Banjo fittings
• Barbed inserts
• Compression olives
• Compression nuts
• Hose covers
• Compatible mineral oil or DOT brake fluid

These components are not included unless specifically stated in the selected package.

Installation Information

The hose should be cut squarely using a suitable hydraulic hose cutter. Install only the fittings specified for the brake model and follow the brake manufacturer’s tightening-torque requirements.

After installation, the brake system must be filled and correctly bled using the specified fluid. Test for leaks, secure routing and proper braking operation before riding.

Hydraulic brakes are safety-critical components. Professional installation by a qualified bicycle or scooter technician is recommended.

Important Compatibility Notes

• Never introduce DOT fluid into a mineral-oil brake system
• Never introduce mineral oil into a DOT-compatible brake system
• Use only fittings intended for the 2.1 mm internal-diameter EZ-MTB hose
• Confirm the required connector style before cutting the hose
• Do not reuse damaged olives, barbs or sealing components
• Replace the hose if it is kinked, crushed, cracked or leaking
