There are lots of instructional videos and instructions out there for all the older Hayes models, but the Dyna system is new and not so well supported. Note that my kit did not come with the promised easy instructions, just a crude drawing of the parts.

What you will need to do this correctly:

Clean space, and a lot of it, because if you drop a little bleeder screw or something the Mechanic Demons will see to it that the part bounces an improbable distance and directly into any pile of debris so that it is hard to find. You know this is true so don't get lazy and work in filth. Also note that some brake fluid will drip and so you need to lay out a sheet of plastic if you care about your working space.

A hex wrench set and a Torx T10 bit. Most of the bike tool all-in-one tool kits have these, but of course separate mechanic's tools are always easier to use.

Gloves as you will get brake fluid on you, rags with alcohol to clean the parts and water-soaked rags to clean up fluid spatter on the paint. Needle-nose pliers are good to remove the cotter pin that holds the brake pads in on this model.

The Hayes brake setting tool is something I recommend: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001CK0JEO/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i02

If you are going to remove a hydraulic line, get this bag of fittings: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001CK0JEO/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i02

And of course this kit. Note that this is the newest and most expensive kit offered and is the right one to get.

Here is how to set it all up: The big bottle is to catch the overflow from the reservoir (the brake handle part). The small one is to squeeze fluid through the caliper, up through the hydraulic line and into the reservoir.

The Hayes PRO Bleed Kit is worth every penny over the cost of the standard "Hayes Disc Brake Bleed Kit." Don't waste time/money on the non-Pro kit (I own and have used both) - the Pro kit provides better quality bottles, more secure tube connections to bottles and the bike components, and a catch bottle with tube connections. My brakes (~12 year old Hayes) needed to be bled after moving from Fort Worth (~500' elevation) to Denver (~5200' elevation). Before bleeding the brakes in Denver, when I squeezed the lever, the caliper would stay clamped onto the disc - no issues after bleeding (odd and rare issue). Having a bike stand is quite helpful for the process - don't rush it, and follow the supplied directions. Four different fittings (see in uploaded picture) are provided for connecting to several different reservoirs (lever-side connections). Don't bleed from the lever to the caliper because the lever side is the non-pressurized reservoir, and you will also be more likely to flush more "gunk" from the caliper into the rest of the system...

I read a lot of reviews and they are very mixed. I had great luck with this kit, had what I needed. I completely flushed my lines. I guess some mechanical aptitude would be helpful. I expected a little mess and I planned for it, any mechanic work usually will involve dirty hands. If you have no idea what you are doing but still want to, there are many youtube videos out there, what as many as you can be patient and plan on making a couple of mistakes as you learn. You'll know your bike better and you'll have the satisfaction of doing it yourself. If you're not a do it your selfer, don't kid yourself, take your bike to the shop and be done with and you'll still be happy.

At some point, you'll need to bleed your Hayes hydraulic brakes.

Buy this kit instead of the cheaper, smaller kit that's available. It'll save you a lot of hassles.

The hoses in the box didn't match up with all of the lengths described in the parts list in the kit, but there was enough tubing to assemble everything. It's a bit complicated to assemble; the pictures aren't very clear, sort-of like a 1970's motorcycle maintenance manual. Download the instructions from Hayes' web site first. Note that the instructions take more time to read than the time it takes to actually bleed the brakes. After you do it the first time, it seems trivial.

Brake bleeding on a bicycle is messy. The adapter that fits into the master cylinder bleed hole makes for a questionable attachment; push it in tight or you'll have brake oil everywhere. Even so, you'll still get some brake fluid splashing around.

4 stars because there should be an easier way to bleed a $400 brake system

I ordered this kit to bleed my Hayes Sole hydraulic disc brakes on my Felt mountain bike. I was a bit nervous about how it would go (after reading some of the other reviews) but I could not be happier with the results. Although I feel I paid for a bunch of fittings I did not use, the basic parts that I did use worked great. Once I figured out what to use (and what to not use) the actual bleeding of the brakes took me about 10 minutes for the rear and 5 for the front.

Lets go over what I used:
1) Both bottles
2) Two pieces of hose
3) One of the fittings for the master cylinder
4) The spoke (I used a piece of tape to adhere it to the bottle)
5) Brake fluid

I was able to connect one the filler bottle hose to the fitting on my calipers, so that made the process a lot easier and neat. I just made sure to break the fitting loose before connecting the hose and then I hand tightened to keep fluid from leaking out until I connected the hose. On the top by the handle, I used one of the small silver fittings to go into the hole where I pulled out the plug. I then attached the empty bottle with the hose to that fitting and hung it on the handle bar.

When I was ready to start I simply loosened the fitting on the caliper about 1/8 of a turn out and squeezed the bottle with the fresh fluid in it. Shortly after that old fluid and a bunch of bubbles came out of the other end and into the bottle. One video I watched said to cycle the brake lever a few times. I did that for the rear and it doesn't seem to have done much. I kept squeezing the filler bottle until clean, bubble free fluid came out of the other end.
