Hi Gabe - DOT fluid swells and destroys the seals on brakes which are supposed to be used with mineral oil (such as the HS11 or HS33 brakes). This will lead to the brake not functioning correctly any more, as well as the seals starting to leak. This is why Magura specify using mineral oil in there brakes, and why using DOT fluid invalidates the warranty for their brakes. Thanks, Mark
Accessories and tools that need to purge the Magura HS11?

Hi Osvaldo - If you use these quick find codes, you would need 2 of item 010537, and 1 of item 010539. With the fluid, all you would need would be the allen key for your bleed bolt and the 8mm spanner for your lever fitting. Thanks, Mark
Can i use this in my echo disc and rim brakes or are they only for magura brakes?

Hi Zakk - It would be fine to use this fluid in all the Echo hydraulic brakes. Thanks, Mark

This is a good alternative for riders with Echo rim brakes who are used to running water in Maguras. The Echo rim brakes won't hold water for long but I've had no problems using this stuff. Not quite as snappy as water but much better than the stock oil.

Hi Rob - Using water in brakes is always a bit of a risk (which is why it voids the warranty for all hydraulic rim brakes). Like you said, we've found this is the best solution. Thanks, Mark
