$35 Easy to Install Hydraulic Brakes on eBike or MTB - Zoom HB100

[@robertryancurry9290]

I have the same one s and love them. Very easy to find new break pads . On many places

[@BRichSolution]

Agreed

[@rickymahoney6664]

This was easy to do and I've never even changed my own brake pads before. I cant believe I put 700 miles on those shitty brakes 😅. The multi color ones were the only color I could get shipped quickly. Black would have been 2 weeks so I paid $50 but I don't even care cuz I saved a $100 in labor and they look good. Thank you for saving me money again!

[@BRichSolution]

Awesome and congratulations

[@JerseyStyle7]

Awesome ty

[@BRichSolution]

Glad you liked it

[@Libertà_sulla_vita]

I'm surprised you don't get any brake fade with that small amount of fluid in those units.

[@BRichSolution]

I agree… i was surprised how good these were after reading all the negative reviews

[@nerve.]

They should've done that. I had these and the heat will become a problem, especially with these heavy e bikes.

[@nerve.]

​@BRichSolution they are amazing for only a couple months, after u got a nice amount of heat in the fluid, braking fade will happen quickly.

[@Mercstar]

Cheap, easy, may save your life. Don't sleep on this if you're rocking mechanical brakes.

[@BRichSolution]

I agree

[@rickymahoney6664]

I'm buying these now. I didn't think I could upgrade on my own and there's no shop near me but this looks easy enough, even for me lol

[@MarcelEtheric]

do these brakes fit Jansno x50? because i want to buy them but do i need to buy anything else for them? any parts or discs and are they included with the brake pads?

[@BRichSolution]

Yes they fit Jansno x50 and x70

[@MarcelEtheric]

@@BRichSolution with stock rotors? And everything? Bolts

[@MarcelEtheric]

@@BRichSolution because I don’t know what to buy with them New discs 160mm and bolts? Or nothing

[@nadiciamartinez724]

Amazing video you helped me get a Ridstar and my brother got a Amyet so just wondering would these brakes work for a Amyet v9

[@BRichSolution]

yes the brake fit nicely on on Amyet v9

[@rickymahoney6664]

I'm going to buy these for my Amyet G60 like you recommended. I heard you mention spacers a few times. Is that something I need to buy? Or is there anything else you think I should buy that's needed? Thanks

[@BRichSolution]

Same spacers on the bike now

[@rickymahoney6664]

I ordered them. I've never had hydraulic brakes before, but I always hear people talking about bleeding their brakes, and I know they need mineral oil, so I'm not sure how these work. I'm just taking your word for it because you know more than me lol. Thanks again

[@Reviewwithme17]

How are they hydraulic if you still using the cable?

[@BRichSolution]

Still great… installed a 2nd set on another ebike

[@Reviewwithme17]

Could you please answer the question I am interested

[@allin4once]

Bought these in July of 2024, installed before the end of July. I roasted them by the end of August 2024. I have a Cycrown bike that ways 75lbs. I ride enthusiastically. They were definitely better than the crap mechanical brakes it came with, but for aggressive riding, these will die fast. And then u will find out that they have a proprietary bleeding screw and you're screwed. I haven't written off the idea of a hydronic caliper, but the HB100 are absolutely NOT the best choice, and a full hydronic conversion would be about 275, all said and done. It's not a lot of money, but for a 1k bike that has. Happy front and rear suspension. I'm not sure i want to pile more money into the bike. Anyway, if you're going to try a hydronic caliper, try one that is NOT the HB100. To bad this content creator either didn't test the caliper like they should or don't care about anything beyond clicks on their videos.

[@BRichSolution]

Good to know but so far 500 miles no issues

[@DaveTheeMan-wj2nk]

I say this without disrespect but are you fat? How much do you weigh, and do you properly use both brakes at the same time to stop or are you only using one pair

[@NN-qb7wn]

How is there any difference in brake performance it's still cable pulled

[@BRichSolution]

Hydraulic piston has more mechanical advantage over mechanical actuated brake and pads are slightly larger then most cheap mechanical brakes

[@MiniLuv-1984]

I was thinking of doing this too and then started puzzling why calipers would make any difference? I can understand a larger disk rotor, but calipers running the same size brake pads? Clearly new hydraulic calipers do make a difference, but why? Any thoughts on the matter welcome!

[@BRichSolution]

Hydraulic pistons have better mechanical advantage over mechanical pistons and pads are larger then stock pads

[@Ucceah]

what @BRichSolution said. plus both brake pads are moving, not just the outer one, like on cheapo standard disk breaks. which makes them wear unevenly, requiring frequent re-adjustment, and causes ever new unpleasant noises. eliminating that pain in the butt alone is worth the upgrade.

[@kevDOTzxc]

What's the difference between this and the Zoom DB680?

[@BRichSolution]

DB680 is mechanical brake no hydraulic fluid in the caliper

[@kdscrapping4452]

Nice . Will they fit any bike ??

[@BRichSolution]

Any brake rotor 140mm 160mm or 180mm

[@OzaruPrince]

How are they holding up ?

[@BRichSolution]

400 miles so far no issues

[@OzaruPrince]

@@BRichSolution I want to buy them but I see a lot of people complaining about almost dying since they suddenly fail

[@nerve.]

Unfortunately they won't last, especially on an E bike, too much heat and no "vent". I've had 4 of these and all failed within a year on my Engwe ep 2 pro that has a 28mph max. The problem with these cable actuated "hybrid" is no reservoir and no small vent to help heat escape from the fluid. Over time, the fluid will get fouled, leak out, and eventually no brake power. It happend to me on a ride & lost Complete braking power to my rare wheels.

[@BRichSolution]

Interesting feedback I have not Experienced that

[@nerve.]

@BRichSolution give I time. I would say 3-5 months of use.

[@chartchaser]

Hey, I've been watching your videos and commenting on them, and them helped me tremendously over a year now. On my ouxi v8 48v 15ah battery, not the updated version, the original without the passenger seat. The receiving part of the battery sparked due to some moisture, I guess, and it slightly melted the chsrching port. Luckily, this part is unscrewable and can be replaced. I just haven't been able to find a replacement part anywhere. I do Uber eats. I need to keep making money to pay rent and feed my family. It would be nice if you knew of a store online to get it. I've messaged 3 stores, but they haven't ever responded.

[@BRichSolution]

Which part sparked on battery or the mount?

[@chartchaser]

@BRichSolution the circular part right under the on-off switch and now it ruined, so now I can't plug in my charger. I took apart the battery, and every thing is fine, and I unclipped the red and black wire connectiom from inside the battery that leads to the charching receiving port that you can unscrew and remove.

[@departmentxgaming]

so these would work on my jansno x70? ALSO THANKS FOR THE VIDS!

[@BRichSolution]

Yes it does!

[@departmentxgaming]

@@BRichSolution Awesome! ive already upgraded to a front 1500w wheel . Going to get the same for rear. Need some more stopping power.

[@joelanderson3122]

I'm looking to get my 1st ebike... looking at the tamobyke v20 then upgrading suspension Or amyet s8 leaving stock. What do you think? Do these brakes work on the v20?

[@BRichSolution]

These brakes will work on both tamobyke and amyet. Amyet G60 and Tamobyke V20 have same front fork and suspension. Amyet is faster and torquer motor than v20

[@MarioGoatse]

So many of these Chinese ebikes come with trash components. Most ebike owners that ride these cafe racers couldn't tell what a group set is, or a hub, or a headset. They just see 750w and 30AH and they're sold. Hence why most ebike manufacturers don't even list the exact components

[@BRichSolution]

Agreed, they make the bikes with whatever components available are low cost

[@andpan3478]

Tons of negative review for them, they are bleeding after a few months

[@BRichSolution]

I have seen the same but so far so good with 200 miles. 4 piston brakes a better but cost 3X and take long time to install
