NOTICE
DOT fluid will damage painted surfaces. If any fluid comes in contact with a painted surface (i.e. your frame) or printing on the brakes, wipe it off
immediately and clean it with isopropyl alcohol or water. Damage to painted and/or printed surfaces by DOT fluid is not covered under warranty.
Use an 8 mm flare nut crowfoot wrench to remove the crimped hose
fitting.
Pull the brake hose and crimped hose fitting from the caliper hose port.
Brake fluid will leak, so hold the caliper over a container to catch the
fluid.
Use a 5 mm hex wrench to remove the caliper body bolts.
Separate the caliper body halves.
Use a T10 TORX® wrench to remove the bleed screw.
