I just built my SC Bullit with Dominion A4's now I'm swapping my bikes (x2) from M8120/9120 to Dominions. I'm sick of the levers seeping mineral oil and needing to bleed the bubbles out every Friday afternoon. I have learned that since I like my levers close to the bars I'm better off using 1.8mm thick rotors
leaking at the lever end - is it pretty obvious?

Stop and look at FACTS: Real brake fluid has been Proven all over the world! We know what it is, unlike the faux Brake fluid. DOT/depart of transportation fluid, is and has been used in: motorcycles, scooters , electric motorcycle, smaller aircraft, trucks, cars, ATVs, UTVS, ETC, For decades and super safe and easy to work with!
yeah, sure .... https://www.bikeradar.com/news/sram-motive-and-db-brakes


Sram:
“Each brake option we offer has been designed to use the fluid and seals that will give it maximum performance. Through testing, it was determined that mineral oil offered the best performance (outperforming DOT versions) while also offering desired lower maintenance qualities.”
