My brakes are simple, they use DOT3 or DOT4 like the ones in our cars
do. The quantity needs costs pennies.


My only problem with that is it's quite aggressive on paint, and you
should bled the whole system every year. Mineral oil has neither of
these problems, but you don't use it in cars.


There is a reason why they don't. Water absortion is actually one of the
important features of DOT fluids.
