Yes, that's what I used it on.
There's a selection of pad spacers and things that came with it, I just found one that would fit.

answer 4
Yes, I've used a friend's bleed kit to bleed my Elixir CR's and it worked perfectly. Shouldn't be any different for the Elixir R's as they're pretty much the same design.

will this work with Juicy3 brakes currently on DOT4

answer 1
I think the main thing to watch out for re. brake fluid is not mixing mineral with DOT...not 100% sure what the issue would be with mixing DOT4 with 5.5. You do get a generous amount of 5.5 fluid with this kit so could bleed the system completely and replace all the fluid if needs be......

This will work with the Juicy 3 brakes, however you will need to flush the system of DOT 4 fluid first and then replace it with the dot 5.1 fluid.

Question
bleed kit
which bleed kit would work with tektro auriga disks? during cold weather my brake fluid went stiff and my rear master cylinder has gone spongey and wont return as normal, do i need to bleed them or is there another fix?

I have the same issue with my Tektro Auriga disc brakes, seems we don't stock a compatible bleed kit at this time but I think the issue is due to air getting into the fluid so it just needs a good bleed and service. I removed my rear wheel and pushed the pistons back out with a screw driver, put the wheel back in and pulled the lever then repeated the process and this did help a little.

YouTube seems to be the best possible resource for technical information, you can actually see the job being done too which helps a lot with the technique of the job and the tools involved.
