The Avid Schwenkschraube for Elixir R/CR/CR Mag/9/7/X.0 and Guide R/RS/RSC brakes is a small but essential hydraulic brake fitting designed specifically for Avid and SRAM disc brake systems. This swivel banjo bolt connects the hydraulic hose to the brake caliper or lever, allowing the hose to sit at the correct angle and reducing stress on the line. By ensuring a secure, leak-free interface, it helps maintain consistent braking performance and reliable hydraulic pressure on demanding rides, whether you are on technical trails or fast descents.
Ideal as a replacement or spare part, this Avid Schwenkschraube is tailored to match the threading and sealing surfaces used on popular Avid Elixir and Guide models, making installation straightforward for home mechanics and professional workshops alike. Using the correct original-style fitting helps prevent damage to hoses and calipers, minimizes the risk of fluid leaks, and supports smooth, predictable lever feel. It’s a smart addition to any rider’s maintenance kit, ensuring that your hydraulic disc brakes remain responsive, durable, and ready for long-term use.
