Mini Bike Brake System: Hydraulic Kit Install & Adjustment

[@davidtovar7768]

Can you make a video on how to replace them break pads I can’t seem to find any out there for that particular hydraulic breaks on your video ,thanks great video 👍🏼.

[@koreywilliams4570]

Nice tip about clamping the brake shut like that.. wish I would have done that with my first brake mount. That second one is more like what I have with the caliper.

[@Cr125stin]

Hey I just put this kit on m db30! Works great! Big difference

[@ripper1480]

How do I adjust the alignment though I can’t seem to figure it out and the break also doesn’t retract for me just locks up

[@joshuafrench4583]

Thanks for the hard work and time u put into these videos. And explanation on the alignment. Loik forward to another video.

[@KartFab]

Thanks for the kind words

[@koreywilliams4570]

Holy apple jacks batman, its the riddler 😦 I have a hydraulic brake caliper setup i bought off amazon for like 30 bucks I think its for a dirt bike or something but its pretty good quality. Even has a spot for a brake light to attach. My problem is my frames custom built so I'm hoping to get some mounting braket ideas.

[@bobjholler]

Very good video! Thanks sooo much!

[@spacedior5811]

how do you bleed these brakes? i have the same brakes on my go kart and i can’t seem to figure out why they won’t bleed or work, they are brand new just won’t squeeze hard enough to stop

[@KartFab]

Gravity. The air bubbles go up. Position brake low and let bubbles go up.

[@ratoneJR]

You want really good stopping power? Put that hydraulic disc brake on the front wheel. Cable disc is good enough for the back. You did say you could lock up the cable operated back brake. How much more rear stopping power do you need? Front brakes provide the most stopping power, by a big margin.

[@DMACC36]

I’m in the same position rn but my tools I ordered I’m waiting for 😂 predator 212 and same hydraulic brake

[@sonyagala2124]

Will this brake setup fit a Baja dirtbug

[@edgarb1605]

Do you know if the mb200 brake system will clear the db30 / motovoxs? like will the brake caliper clear the sidewalls of the tires?

[@GAMERJAG]

I'm saving for one on my db30 because my brakes suck and dont provide any friction to my bike unless I grip the handle with 2 hands and that isnt enough to stop it

[@rulerz6849]

what size are the bolts for the bracket

[@jaydenbrown3314]

Hi kart fab I have a question how do I put my hydraulic brake system on my storm 200 mini bike if the brake pads are to thick to even fit on the disc

[@KartFab]

Can you open up the pads?

[@AbelardoCardenas1972]

My question is there is a switch 2 prunge on the brake hydraulic handle what is that for ?

[@WillLinnebur]

That's the brake light connector. Pulling the lever turns the light on. Test it with an Ohm meter.

haha yeah man, i get that a lot with the fro, either that or elf.

[@tysoncarlson1482]

My brakes the pad closer to tue piston will move out further and further and then eventually gets locked but idk how to make it where it returns once I let go

[@KartFab]

When you install, use full pads. If it’s locking up it’s a problem with alignment. I squeeze brake pads to the rotor then weld support in place for perfect alignment.

[@Jose_u]

How do you loosen the piston because I accidentally pressed the lever without anything in the middle and now I can’t get it on the brake disc?

[@PumpkinKingXXIII]

I did it too, I had to crack the bleeder valve open a hair. I was then able to push it apart with minimal fluid loss

[@danielleconstantino9281]

The link bring you to the wrong one unless it because it’s a deferent brake plate idk but all i’m saying is i need help i bought it and it does not work

[@jordanbrown2833]

"no man you suck" lmaooo - this is great and complete thank you!

[@s.loeung1366]

What bolt size are for the rear caliper

[@modelnutty6503]

Grant, maybe you're the guy to do this one. a brushless ducted fan unit is what's used for electric model jets, they're a radial compressor type blade, 5-6-7-9-11 blade fan are pretty common, and they can deliver thrust in the POUNDS (especially larger units). what they DON'T tell, is how many BAR, or how much pressure can be developed before the propeller goes cavitation. they're controlled by an ESC, which can be programmed for power curves. now look at Tillotson fuel injection, which can be controlled with pulse width and frequency, so really all that'd be needed is a "brain" using input from the crankshaft RPM to control the forced air and fuel injection, this could be tinkered with like a full size car's ECU. some ducted fan are about 50-60-70 mm diameter, imagine hiding THAT inside an air filter. sure it'd need a 3S or 4S LiPo battery to run it, but it might be possible to program+wire the contraption to run a normal default, or hold a momentary switch down for boost engage, where the ducted fan gets powered up and the normal fuel injection signal gets fattened up. now for more fun, software so you can program the thing with an Android.

Will this fit on the Ct200u-EX

[@samueltremuloquintanilla195]

Exelente video muchas gracias

[@fixhead562]

what size is the hex socket cap bolt that connects the caliper to the frame bracket? The bike I got didn't come with any. Thanks

[@KartFab]

Not sure usually metric bolts are 6mm or 8mm.

[@brandensandler3494]

Thanks grant I have needed to upgrade my brakes becouse myne are trash like those ones this will help me a lot Thanks!

[@keithbrown7088]

Awsome video

[@TheShangralaaaa17]

I have this crap on my db30 Those brake calipers are garbage tho....the guide pins are so flimsy and break easily. Sure the caliper clamps but the pins arent strong enough to hold the caliper in place.

[@julianflores2511]

What yur sprocket setup and top speed ? If yu remember ?

[@KartFab]

Fast AF

[@Prepared2Survive]

What about the weld splatter on the disk? Might want to cover the tire and disk next time. just my 2 cents. Don't want to ruin brand new brake pads due to weld splatter.

[@bleezham]

I have a monster moto E1000 that I upgraded to 60V and it now does around 35. I need better brakes but im limited to electronics not welding. Any suggestions on bolt on upgrade?

[@KartFab]

take to a welding shop and have them retrofit.

[@bleezham]

@@KartFab good point should be easy enough

[@edgualdino628]

Why would you welder that all you have to do is cut the spacer off the original bracket an it's works perfectly

[@ericearhart]

Where did you get the steel mounting bracket you welded on?

[@KartFab]

Scrap steel cut to size.

[@ericearhart]

@@KartFab I thought someone was selling prefab caliper brackets with the mounting holes.

[@bentagliarini7918]

How did you do your quiet muffler? Do i just wrap fmf packing 2x packs around outside of tin standard exhaust then duc tape it very tight to sound proof it?

[@KartFab]

Honda grom muffler

[@jok3yjesu339]

Couldn't you have flipped that solid mount on the brake capiler or use the old and then if needed use a spacer

[@KartFab]

Possibly, it’s whatever works.

[@r_mackblah7685]

I got a x.18 Super Sport motorbike and my drainage hose broke so I'm trying to fix it if you have some websites where I can get parts or any advice to do I appreciate it you have a blessed day

Could I "Possibly" upgrade my 1987 Craftsman GT6000 from "Friction Strap" brakes to this with an appropriate Brake Disc? Any info on this "potential upgrade" would be helpful. Have a HAPPY & SAFE NEW YEAR! -Thomas (12) Port Orchard, Washington

[@KartFab]

If you can figure out a way to mount a disc to where the brake drum was mounted you can. All you need is to mount the disc and mount the caliper. I’m assuming it’s a brake drum and brake band?

[@ovnox]

Where did you get those tires!!???

Good video sir

[@rapmaniacforum]

You didn't show how to decompress

[@ralphcantrell3214]

I upgraded my Doodle Bug from cable actuated brakes to a hydraulic kit just like this one, and it worked great for about 3 rides. Then it started sticking shut and the ONLY WAY to make it release is to roll the mini bike backwards. Doing this will release it instantly every time, so now I must come to a complete stop every single time I must apply the brake - even a little bit - and then back up for a few inches before I can continue on my way. Does anybody have a clue how to stop this madness?

[@KartFab]

Sounds like a sticking pin. Grease up the pin, then decompress. Could be bad alignment as well.

oh the pads are just held in place by a little clip that looks like a letter V. It comes with the brake kit.

[@ELMANTEC]

kind of not bad video, but it's not "Hydraulic Kit Install", it's more of a "DIY hydraulic brake system"..... I hope, I can find calipers that fits my brackets :/ because definitely don't wanna weld on my new bike :D

lmao! somthing like that! seems you know, not fun somtimes!!!! Your correct, don't throw the brakes out!!!! "The brakes"

[@alanherrera6258]

Hello how can I adjust it when I hit the brakes it doesn’t wanna brake anymore

[@KartFab]

New brake pads from a cable brake are thicker. Just swap them out for those pads. Also you might want to try out bleeding the air from the line

[@Fuzzyfire]

I have a retek cheetah and i WISH those hydraulic brakes would work... the cheetah has the weirdest mechanical brake setup i have ever seen. i would have to custom make an entire bracket to mount the hydraulic brake and i'm no metal fabricator...it's so infinitely frustrating.

[@KartFab]

Pay someone to do what you can’t do

[@anrsealcoat]

U need to go with sintered pads tho. If not you will be eating thru those cheap organic pads like seriously every 4 or 5 rides

[@KartFab]

1 year so far so good. Thanks for the heads up though. IF only they made cheap chinese sintered pads.
