JGbike MTB Hydraulic Disc Brake Set Compatible with Shimano MT200 Mountain Bike Bicycle MTB XC Trail, e-Bike, Fat Bike, the Best Upgrade kit for Mechanical Disc Brake

This kit comes 'value add' pre-assembled and pre-bled. Super easy to install and worked great! Major upgrade over mechanical disc brakes. I bought my wife's bike 1.5 years ago and was excited to have disc brakes over the old v-brakes or rim brakes. But, they have always been far less powerful and more prone to squealing than I was happy about. when I looked into it and found this upgrade kit I didn't hesitate to order it. It installed very easily and I'm thrilled with the results! This is not a high-end mountain bike brake system, but for a trail bike that already has disc brakes this is a solid upgrade that's well worth the cost and effort. Highly recommended! 11/30/2019 update: I just wanted to come back and give an update. My wife has put over 1,000 miles on her bike since I installed these and they're still working perfectly! This was a great upgrade for her bike. These work so much better than the original cable-actuated solution. Those were always squealing because they have a fixed pad on one side and only moved the one pad to clamp. These move both at once and clamp evenly on both sides. Plus, these are now about $20 less than I paid for them. Great value!!! 10/3/2024 update: the first set of these are still going strong on that bike (which is now our daughters bike). The new bike we had purchased for my wife came with some lousy Tektro flat mount calipers that I've now converted to these Shimano MT200s. I had to buy some adapter brackets from Amazon to mount them, but these brakes have again come through for me and are an amazing upgrade once again. Still highly recommended!!!

First time upgrading any components on my bike (2007 GT Avalanche) and this system was very easy to install. Even though these are entry level, they are a huge improvement over mechanical disc brakes. My old bike now stops real quick. I do wish someone would put together a complete system of the mid tier brakes, but these are fine for now.

I consider these hydraulic brakes entry level to mid level brakes. They work really well and they are not super expensive. They are a Great upgrade from any mechanical disk brakes I have had. An advantage of hydraulic brakes over mechanical brakes is that there's no need for constant adjustment due to wear of the pads or slipping/stretching brake cables. Also brake installation and alignment is easier than with the mechanical brakes. These brakes came with fluid and they were pre bled and ready to go. In the future at some point the brakes will probably need to be bled. I would recommend getting some mineral oil and a brake bleeding kit. If you need to cut the brake hoses to shorten them then you will need not only that, but also olives and inserts. You will need BH59 inserts for these brake hoses. If you are a beginner and have no mechanical experience I think most people can watch some YouTube videos and not have much of a problem installing the brakes. Cutting hoses, Bleeding the brakes, and the tools you will need are a little more in depth but not greatly difficult. I would definitely recommend these brakes. They are night and day compared to mechanical disc brakes, not only in performance but maintenance as well.

I bought these to replace my leaking Hayes Hydraulic brakes from a 2004 Giant NRS2. The bike has been sitting there for a few years and every time I wanted to ride I needed to re-bleed the system due to leaks. The seals have finally gave up and would not hold pressure and cannot find replace parts anymore. Due to the price point, I decided to give this set a try. I bought the 800mm/1500mm kit and it comes with front and rear, fully assembled and pre-bleed. 4 pieces of adapters (2 looks to be Shimano and was mounted on the caliper). Even though the adapters looks almost the same as the ones I had on the bike, I decided to use the new ones. From the rear, I used the Shimano adapter and for the front, I used the supplied JGBike adapter. Installation took around 15 minutes. I rode the bike around the block for a quick test and I was truly impressed. The initial bite and stopping power felt exactly the same as my 1st generation Hayes Hydraulic (which cost so much more). This set enabled me to restore an old bike at a very reasonable cost. Highly recommended..!!

I just installed these on my old buzz novara, replacing Avid BDBB mechanicals that were getting too old and worn to entice me to invest time squeezing more life from them. Now my brakes weren't working optimally to begin with but taking these for a spin, holy moly! The engagement is smooth with light pressure on the handle and the stopping power with the rear set alone is impressive. I live in New Orleans so I'm mostly biking NOLA roads with NOLA drivers and everything is very flat. So these are a bit overkill, but I imagine they'd be more than adequate in San Fransisco or in Appalachia. My first time installing disc brakes and it couldn't have been easier given the tech. IMPORTANTLY I ordered the 2nd size of US <I'll need to check and update, 1650 rear I think> and both front and rear were too long, rear more so. I'll need to shorten them at some point. Which brings me too what is not included: Parts to shorten the hose, and olive and other stuff I'm not too familiar with yet. More importantly, there is only one mounting bracket included in addition to what I believe is a 180mm rotor spacer. No rotors either. I had ordered new rotors and used my old mounting bracket for the front calipers, but you'll want to make sure to procure another bracket if you don't have one. TlDR Only included one mounting bracket and 180mm spacer. No parts to shorten hoses and be careful with the length, I thought I'd measured correctly but I my hoses were still too long(not a ton but I'll want to shorten them eventually). Otherwise for the money, I can't believe how effective they are. I thought hydraulics and even new calipers were out of budget but putting aside a little coin, they seem to be well worth the modest investment.

Für Leute die keine linken Hände haben sollte der Anbau keine Probleme darstellen. Anleitung war in meinen Fall nicht wirklich hilfreich. Aber alte mechanische bremsen ab und 1 zu1 neue dran, das ganze hat ca 30 min gedauert. Die Qualität ist ok, Bremswirkung ist auch ok, negatives kann ich bisher nicht sagen, es ist auf jeden Fall eine Kaufempfehlung. Preis ist auch ok

ME gusto la entrega una día antes no habia podido conseguir y ellos lo tienen buena calidad lo esperado

Can’t recommend this enough for the money. Super easy install.

They arrive ready to use, pre-filled and pre-bled with a spacer between the brake pads. These are a huge upgrade over mechanical brakes, they easily lock the wheel with very little input from the lever, so you must use with caution. Very happy with my upgrade, I feel much safer riding my eBike

Squeezy squeezy stoppy stoppy. Easy bolt on.
