Great video. I will be doing the exact same thing. thanks for making a simple to follow video.

Thank you for this video! You just saved me from having to take my Explorer to the bike shop!

Great and informative

I bought a bleeding kit from another brand with several adaptors since I didn't know the dimensions of the upper or lower bleed ports on the Explorer. I found one that worked to screw into the top port, but it had a hose connection on the other end, rather than something the funnel would fit into. The funnel tip itself was the wrong size to screw directly into the port as yours does. Bleed Zone sells all kinds of bleed kits. It would be VERY helpful if you included the actual specific kit you bought with the funnel/cup that fits the bee cool bleed port on the upper port, rather than saying you bought "a kit" off of Amazon. You briefly show the package but all that is visible is the brand name and you don't mention any particular kit or what brand or type of brakes it is designed for. All this video provides is that it's from Bleed Zone, and was about $20 on Amazon. Unfortunately there's several kits that fit that description. It's a mystery to me what type of brake calipers Bee Cool uses, or what size the upper bleed port is on these, and unfortunately after this video it still is. Likewise, on their website, the instructions for bleeding brakes offer only broad, general instructions and don't include any information on brand, size of upper port or which bolt on the caliper is the bleed port and other drain port... or how they work.

Good explanation of what you did. My problem is that I don't know which bolt on the caliper is for bleeding the fluid at the caliper, and you don't specify it either, though it looks like you kind of point to one. Most instructions say to put a hose over the bleed nipple on the caliper, however the caliper of the Explorer has none. And there's two bolts on it. I suspect one is the bleed port, and the other is the bleed valve, but have no idea which is which. Was hoping this would be shown here, but it's not. You also only did the last step of the bleeding process as instructions for most lay out. The first step is to attach the funnel or bowl and then you rig up syringe and tubing to bottom bleed valve, then open top port at lever and push fluid into system from the syringe attached to the caliper and push it up into the cup. You then use plunger and stop that off and remove old oil, replace it, fill with a table spoon or two of fresh oil, and then draw that back into the system from the syringe at the bottom. Then, you compress brake lever and hold it down, then open and shut bottom bleed port quickly, and continue this 4-5 times until no bubbles appear at the bottom tube. And then and only then do you do the step you demonstrate where you burp the upper lever.

Thanks this was a big help

That was hilarious. And very helpful thank you. I will be ordering that break bleeding kit.

Great video my dude. Appreciate you

Thanks for the video. Have to do this to my bike. Rear brake is getting soft.

Thanks for this excellent and informative video!

Thanks for showing how to do it on the Bee Cool

Thank you!!! This is just what i needed for my explorer!

Love my Beecool. Now my brakes work great. Thanks!

Thank you for the step by step video. Very helpful. Tschuss!

Thanks for the video. I have the bee cool explorer for my first ebike and you pretty much have to take it all the way back to the handlebars to get any stopping in the front brake after 140 miles. I took it to the local bike shop but they don't work on ebikes and the guy said he could take a quick look. Then said it was fine, you just have to squeeze harder. That didn't sound right to me especially since the brake started off fine and the other brake was fine. Even if they don't work on ebikes they should know how to bleed hydraulic disc breaks geez. These videos help the newbies learn how to maintain their bikes on their own.

Nice video. Thanks. My rear brake wasn’t working out of the box. No biggie, just bled it and good to go. Bee cool sent me your video link after I emailed them.

Thanks for instructions guy, I have the same issue with my brakes, I ordered a bleed kit, but I was also under the impression you had to open the bleed valve on the brake caliper also, is that unnecessary.

I average 22-23 mph. Riding the bike all winter to work and back 8 mi round trip in northern minnesota. Either that or snowmobile. 1200 miles since august.

Becool adventurer owner here. Same issue with brakes but after pad replacement @1100 miles. Turns out rear caliper mount is too high and presses pads only 1/2 way onto the disc. I will be grinding it back to fit properly. Uneven pad wear. And about to buy the bleed kit as well. Informative. Thanks 😊.

Excellent video. Thanks for showing how to do it on the Bee Cool Adventurer. What mount are you using for your phone?

Hey so I recently had issues with my beecool challenger , the right brake which the rear stopped working as efficiently as when it was new ** note I got the bike December 2022** so about 7 months .. so lever comes in all the way and almost touches the throttle and grip I definitely feel the loss in stopping power , the front brake is okay …. I took it to my local bike/ e-bike repair and they claim nothing is wrong with the brakes … but I definitely feel the loss in stopping power which riding in LA is needed sooo after watching your video I’m convinced i need to bleed my brakes ???? 🤔 apparently my brake pads are good so that’s not a concern

I’m having that issue with my wife’s bee cool. Is the fix still working? I just ordered the kit. Thanks for posting.

How do the tires look after 100 miles? Curious as to life expectancy on these tires. I have the same model you do

have you experienced a warped disc before? My rear disc looks warped AF. ;-(

Beecool customer service is horrible! I regret buying my bike.

7 minute mark “🫣🤭”

Got the same bike and the first time I had to really use both front and back breaks and my front breaks failed and now is leaking fluid out of the caliper
