FYI soldiering and using heat shrink is the GO.
Always enjoy the videos 👍🏼
I’m hoping the MTB manufacturers get involved more and start producing parts and upgrades for eScooters. Would love better fixings, bolts parts etc.
Tyre manufacturers also!!
Amazing tutorial. I learned a lot. Thanks.
Mechanical breaks are less of a headache in my opinion. Easier to adjust and more straight forward. These zoom breaks can become a headache
Regarding metall ring in brake lever. R we supposed to remove it or have it on while bleeding brakes?
Hi again
I wanted to ask u. In what video of yours do u cover the items I have purchased? Like helmet, goggles etc
actually I think you missed the biggest point with the brake sensor, it cuts up the power of the motors, because electric scooter components are low quality (like the display trigger) many of them fail and go full throttle (magnet snaps out of place, plastic holder brakes etc), pressing the break will avoid any danger that might happen to you by taking hold of situation and stop without a problem... and not the (almost) useless breaking blinking lights...
You make a good point. You're right and I totally missed that.
This exact failure happened to Me today on my Mantis. Uncontrolled and unintended full acceleration with an Error code. 350 miles on mine
yeah exactly. Are the Magura e series brakes the only name brand levers that come stock with the electric connection?
@@Goodman-4525 no, there are zoom and nutt also
plus its an "always open" system, if you dont connect that line then it will think that the brake is always 100% activated, and you wont go anywhere, happened to me after the lever snapped off but the sensor was still intact
How do u fix brake disc scratching
Can you provide the exact model of the Zoom brakes you used as a replacement. I have an Apollo City and would like to upgrade the brakes.
hi. im from the Philippines. im having a hard time looking for a right mounted brake disc. and i saw your video. can i ask what brand was your hydraulic brakes?
Any idea what brake fluid to use?
Hi what brand of oil should I use to bleed the brakes
im thinking about adding hydrolic brakes on my scooter.i have an apollo city and im wandering if i dont reconect the brake light cables will the rest off the scooter still function because if heard of error codes that can come up on some scooters due to that
How did you feed the wire through the base ???
can anyone help me i got a jetso element pro electric scooter and the throtle is broken it wont move even though it is at full chage and it say E2 on the screen help
Can i use bike's hydraulic brakes in my e scooter?
Is possible to do this upgrade on the Emove Cruiser
Love the videos! I just got my first real scooter ( Quick wheel explorer) and love the 12 miles so far, I also live in Utah and would love to go riding with you some day keep up the good content!
I would love to start organizing group rides in the area!
@@RK9Rides we'll keep me posted kus I'm in haha
Would this kit fit a kaabo mantis 10?
Hi..
Can you share the supplier details of this e hydraulic brake set..
Hi is the shimano brake caliper mounting holes same length as the electric scooter brake caliper holes ?
This makes me confident in my choice to order scooter I really want but only comes with mechanical brakes…. The Kukirin G2 Master!
Unfortunately, it seems now the new Varlas will not come with the Zoom Hydraulic brakes but a brand they call MAKUTA, have not heard of it, and the symbols on the units are Chinese. I will be interested in knowing if new customers are getting the same brakes as mine or the Zooms. Not very happy, as the rear brake took a lot of tweaking to get it from screeching and the brake lever feels squishy compared to the front, may need to bleed it out in the near future. Also, my rear disc brake was completely rusted, needed to buy another and they ended up refunding me. The clamp was also disassembled and thrown on the bottom of the box. Overall 7/10 packaging and 6/10 out of the box readiness. I will do a review soon. Now once all is set and ready, the scooter is a lot of fun to ride. I got the extended handlebars you recommended and I love them! Makes the world of a difference. Got some other goodies that I installed! Thanks for the inspiration!
Arent those semi hydraulic since they use a cable?
Mechanical to hydraulic is a great start... But 140mm to 160mm rotors is where the better braking modulation takes effect. It's Essentially adding almost 20% more braking torque. I made a tutorial on. I would definitely give it a try if I were you. Nice video btw!
Do you have this on your escooter? My concern with the size is that it will hit rocks if you go a lot off-roading....
@@everythingoutdoorzy88 lol just do it... Every scooter comes with 160mm now. Back then nobody had it so that's why I made a tutorial.
Can i use my shimano bike brakes on this?
My zoom calipers dont fit on my original mounting on Zero 10x? Why
I just purchased a Shimano MT200 hydraulic brake for my Halo M4 electric scooter but it didnt fit?? any ideas why?
Can you give me the size of the olive ring. I bought the Nutt Hydraulic brakes but they didn't come with the olive rings. VERY FRUSTRATING
How to buy this ?
Hi, i have a scooter that has a closed brake system, the rear brake is no longer working, and the front brake is squishy. I messaged the company for what size brake pads i need, and the told me i cant change the pads, that i have to spend 100s of dollars and buy two completely new brakes from them. That doesseem right to me, do you have any knowledge regarding this? Thanks. Oh, and i have completely disabled the eletronic brakes in p settings, will i still have to use brake fluid?
So I'm glad to have the upgraded brakes on my new varla scooter but they are super aggressive and I worry about the general public with no motorcycle experience. Super aggressive but better then having to adjust brakes every ride. I'm actually hoping as they wear they lose some of that grab. Because right now they try to throw you over the handles. Anxious to hear other people's opinions. Thanks
My varla pegasus needs hydraulic disc brakes don’t know why a 1200 e scooter comes with mechanical brakes
I just upgraded to maguras on my eagle pro. The diffrence is crazy
Hi just got a eagle pro today 2021 sep 23rd how much to get hydrolics as mine are just macanical ones is they a big difference bud?also want a bk foot rest but crazy price for a dultron make!!!🤑
@@stannyman73 was around 350 for both calipers, 60 for two 160 shimano rotors.
I think you can flip the brakes to opposite side so the logo faces underneath and doesn't bump into the display controller
There's a little reservoir in there that needs to be right side up.
Hello, how well does this zoom hydraulic brakes work in wet conditions, like rain?
really good
I made a short vid of my Turbowheel Phaeton 🛴.... Custom lights
Just seeing how you like your Eagle One Scooter I want to know because I'm thinking about grabbing money tell me how do you like it after you've been owned and meant for this amount of time is it worth it because I thought about getting a nanrobot D6
I love mine! Its a great little machine and a lot of fun!
6:39 wait it has abs?
I'm finding these brakes all over Amazon for scary affordable prices but 4 stars. I just can't seem to find a set with wiring for the brake light and I really don't want to lose that light. anyone know how I can find this exact set up with the wiring for the brake light?
EBay bro
How does the Varla Eagle One compare to the Mantis? How is the high speed stability and comfort?
I'm putting out a whole video about that so keep an eye out!
@@RK9Rides champ bro im trying to make this very choice myself !
So my Eagle one has the front rotor , bracket and caliper on the left side of the wheel and tire. Are they swappable left to right? Any idea?
Not usually. They are side specific.
@@everythingoutdoorzy88 thanks very much. That is what I thought. They are mirror images of each other. I just thought maybe a plug and wire could be swapped. I've fastened the brake line well with zip ties and it's been fine. Thanks very much for your expertise. Varla actually responded- they weren't as clear as you but just said "its fine- we made some with the brake rotor on the same side and others with rotors on opposite sides.
Ahh you should have soldered the wires ?
Those crimps are definitely not gonna last.
Amatur🙄
