Hydraulic Brake Bleed for Bikes and E-Bikes

If your brake lever feels spongy, pulls closer to the bar than it used to, or your stopping power has faded, there's likely air or old fluid in your hydraulic lines. A full brake bleed flushes that out and brings back a firm, consistent lever.

This service is a full bleed of Shimano and SRAM style hydraulic disc brakes, done by our techs at CyclErie in Erie and Longmont, Colorado.

Signs you need a brake bleed

  • Spongy or soft lever feel
  • Lever pulls all the way to the handlebar
  • Braking power that fades on long descents
  • Inconsistent feel between front and rear brakes
  • It has been a long time since your last bleed

Why it matters on an e-bike

E-bikes are heavier and carry more speed than a standard bike, which puts more demand on your brakes. Keeping your hydraulic system fresh is one of the simplest ways to ride with confidence.

We had an outstanding experience at Cyclerie! We purchased two Aventon e-bikes, and the entire process was exceptional from start to finish. The staff took the time to help us choose the perfect bikes for our needs, recommended all the right accessories, and even installed our bike rack on the car before we left.

I had a terrific experience at Cyclerie! I love the bike I bought and working with Skip was great. He told me about customizing features that are available on the bike if you use the Aventon app.
