Preface & Safety Warnings
Part 1: Product Overview & Specs
Introduction
XOD split hydraulic brakes separate lever, oil line, and caliper. Dual pistons transmit hydraulic force to brake pads for precise braking.
Key Features
- Dual-piston: strong, smooth braking, even pad wear
- High-quality materials: wear-resistant pads, leak-proof caliper
- Linear feel: precise braking feedback
Part 2: Installation & Adjustment
Step-by-step Installation
- Install disc: clean hub, align, tighten crosswise (2–4 N·m)
- Install caliper: mount bracket, center caliper while squeezing lever, tighten screws (6–8 N·m)
- Install lever & oil line: mount lever, route oil line, connect and tighten
- Fill & bleed: repeatedly squeeze lever to remove bubbles; keep reservoir full
Post-installation Check
- Lever feel solid, no sponginess
- Wheel rotation & brake response
- Check for oil leaks
- Low-speed test ride
Part 3: Maintenance & Daily Use
Precautions
- Break-in: 100–200 km, avoid harsh braking
- Clean disc regularly
- Check oil reservoir level
Part 4: Troubleshooting
| Fault | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Weak braking, soft lever | Air in system, low fluid, worn pads | Check fluid/pads; bleed system |
| Stiff lever, low braking | Blocked line, stuck piston | Clean caliper; replace if needed |
| Noise during braking | Contaminated/worn pads | Clean/replace pads |
| Brake drag | Misaligned caliper, piston stuck | Reposition caliper; clean piston |
| Oil leakage | Damaged seals, loose joint | Stop using; replace seals/pipe; bleed system |
