Description
DOT 5.1 is a high-performance, fully synthetic fluid that will guarantee beautiful brakes all the way from the chairlift to the bar. It has an extremely high boiling point to keep brakes sharp and fade-free, and will perform well on the longest, nastiest Alpine descents.
Tested at World Cup downhill races and white-knuckle summer Morzine laps, DOT 5.1 works with DOT 3, 4 and 5.1 glycol-ether-based fluid systems.
Don’t forget: Brake Fluid is good but it won’t compensate for badly bled brakes, rubbish rotors and pooped pads. Always keep your brakes tip top so Brake Fluid can work its magic.
Please note: Not suitable for DOT 5 silicone based or mineral based systems.
DOT oil can damage paintwork and must be washed off with water immediately. It’s also important to keep the container tightly sealed to avoid the absorption of moisture.
