Hey my brake fluid is low on my avid juicy 3 brakes and I was wondering what the step by step instructions are to adding more fluid!

Thanks!

buy the bleed kit and do it yourself it's not that hard, just take your time!

shop will likely charge you anywhere from $10 to $20 per brake... avid bleed kits themselves retail for more than $60... if you think you'll be doing this more than once, which is very likely, it might be best to invest in the bleed kit and learn how to do it yourself...
