Item # SHI00BGEnjoy the ritual.
Spending a summer afternoon in the garage changing your brake cables and recharging your hydraulic fluid after a long ride can be an enjoyable maintenance ritual. Preparing your garage for when the occasion arises is easy with a spare set of cables and Shimano's Oil for Disc Brakes. The hydraulic mineral oil will refresh your Shimano brakes if your fluid becomes contaminated, and it comes with enough to use for multiple bikes, if needed.

John BamfordGearheadthe best
buy the big bottle if you are an at home mechanic, nothing but the best formy shimano brakes :)
Ben BrownEmployeeGood stuff
I keep a big jug on hand for all of my family's mountain bike disc brakes. You never want to run out in the middle of a last minute brake bleed.

Keep your brakes feeling fresh with frequent bleeds. This bottle will last a while.
Andy M.EmployeeGood value

Compared to the cost of the smaller bottles it makes sense to go for the jug. Nothing fancy here, just the oil you need to bleed your Shimano brakes. I've been an Avid brake user for a long time, it's nice to be on Shimano brakes and be able to bleed using something less toxic than DOT brake fluid.
Duncan BrittEmployeeLots of oil for bleeding.

What can I say. It's shimano oil, and I've never had an issue with it. I ended up buying a larger jug since it is more economical since I usually end up helping my buddies out with their bleeds.

This bottle should keep your brakes going to the future! Gotta pick one of these up if you run Shimano brakes.

This big ol' jug of mineral oil is a great value compared to the price of the smaller bottles. Buy this if you have a couple bikes in the house. Or if you just have one bike, buy it anyways and offer to bleed all your friend's brakes for a six pack - you'll make out like a bandit!

The smaller bottles are great if you need to bleed an individual brake, but when you've got multiple bikes running Shimano brakes and they're in need of a pre-season bleed, the big bottle is where it's at. Keep the individual bottles for your traveling tool kit.
