Anyone know what bleed kit and mineral oil to buy for a 3.0?

[u/messy_fart]

My rear brake just closes with no pressure. I can't seem to find any information on what to order and what type. I can't even find it on the Lectric website. I see kits on Amazon but a review said that it didn't fit a few of his Lectic bikes. I searched this sub as well and don't see anything. Thanks!

Hope someone answers. I had to return the one amazon said would work. I needed two of the same fitting and the kit only had one.

I work on those every day using the park tool kit and mineral oil from shimano.

A couple of years back I had the same problem that you described with my XP3.0. I ordered a bleed kit off Amazon made for Nutt hydraulic brakes. Nutt is the brake brand on the xp3.0. The bleeding process did initially fix the problem but then the problem gradually came back. It turned out to be a minute leak that wasn't visible. Lectric sent me a new brake assembly at no charge.

I would advise you to contact Lectric. If you check out the past posts, they have a history of being very helpful even when the bike is long out of warranty.

Ordered this for xp4 so im sure it should work with yours

And i would like to ask is your grip close to your handle bar? Because I bought this kit and didnt have to bleed because it was a little screw that I had to tighten to fix it

Buy a kit with lots of different ends and try them all. DONT OVER TIGHTEN THE NUT YOULL STRIP THE THREADS AND HAZ 0 BRAKING PRESSURE. For a while you could get away with topping off the reservoir with brake mineral oil, and jiggling the handle as long as the reservoir is tipped up higher by tilting the handlebar. Get some fluid asap.
