Bleed Kits for SRAM

Classic SRAM brakes (Code, Level, Guide, and AXS) use DOT 5.1 fluid with SRAM's Bleeding Edge caliper port. Use only DOT fluid in these brakes. The exception is SRAM Maven, which uses SRAM Maxima mineral oil — so confirm your exact model before choosing fluid and a kit.

Choose a SRAM DOT kit with the Bleeding Edge fitting. The Bleeding Edge port is shared across Code, Avid Elixir, Juicy, and older Formula calipers, so a SRAM-specific kit connects cleanly. Pick Basic, Workshop, or Ultimate by how often you bleed and how many fittings you need.

Yes. Maven uses a 5.0 mm bleed block versus Code's 4.0 mm, and Maven runs SRAM Maxima mineral oil rather than DOT 5.1. A standard SRAM DOT kit will not give the correct block thickness or fluid for Maven, so order a Maven-specific kit for that brake.

Bleeding Edge is SRAM's sealed caliper port that lets you bleed without spilling fluid. The concept is used across Maven, Code, Avid Elixir, Juicy, and older Formula calipers, but the fitting size is not universal — Maven uses a unique 5.0 mm block that does not interchange with the 4.0 mm DOT models.

No. Classic SRAM brakes require DOT 5.1; mineral oil will damage the seals and must never be mixed with DOT. Buy DOT 5.1 separately if you only need fluid, and keep DOT tools fully separate from any mineral-oil kit used on Shimano or Maven brakes.
