.....It's the same principal as a car, just 100x easier because you're at both ends, the pipe/hose is flexible and it isn't nasty DOT fluid. ....

IIRC Tektro are the only manufacturer which has used both types of fluid.

I think you might have recalled incorrectly, either that or the manufacturer has got it wrong:
Mineral Oil
• For all TRP and Tektro hydraulic braking systems.

you are quite right, I was thinking of Giant, just down the road from tektro. Giant remain the only manufacturer with a foot in each fluid camp,so to speak..

is that SRAM;'s way of admitting they might have got it wrong before?

We can only hope…

I'm considering whether to service the Tektro flat bar brake system on a family member's bike. I've never done this before, but I have done cars.

I've found videos from Tektro and Park Tool:

Any advice on bits that I'll need other than what's upthread?

And any other advice?

Thanks again for all of that constructive advice. It's greatly appreciated.

The outcome is that I paid a professional.
