TRP Spyre disassemly and maintenance

This particular Spyre is rather worn out which is exactly why you should maintain them from time to time. Yes, I'm using a butterknife. Feel free to ask any questions.

Magnificent video! Very good illumination, camera work, editing and chilling music! Thanks!

Still some of the best disc brake calipers on the market years on from release. I'd never seen the internals and the design is absolutely brilliant. Elegant in their simplicity and execution. Wonderful stuff.

In the process of refurbishing a set of these. This video is invaluable.

Very useful thank you! Much better than the official TRP videos!

Thanks for making this video! I overhauled both front and rear calipers after watching this video. Between this and installing new inner and outer cables my brakes have never been this good!

These brakes came with my new gravel bike, i was gonna changed them out with hydraulics straight away, until the lbs said they are great, so i am taking them into the mountains with me. Fantastic video .x

Great video, my spryre had been acting up and this made it so simple to strip down and service the caliper. Thanks for sharing the knowledge

Tremendously useful to me as I serviced a pair of second hand brakes. Note to others: I found the two bolts (1:45 mins in) holding the halfs together very difficult to remove, I resorted to penetrating oil but it may of simply been very tight. I was able to apply a lot of force as they are Torx bolts (T10) and I eventually got them apart. The bearing balls are 2.8mm, I didn't change them this time but I've ordered some of eBay.

very instructive video. I successfully cleaned my brakes and now it works again perfectly.thank you so much

Yo. I used this video to guide me in stripping my TRP Spyre down to the guts to clean and grease and reset it after 10, 000s of miles. Thank you for this step by step guide.

Excellent video. I agree with all the other positive comments. I got stuck on how to get the arm off and ended up flushing it out the best I could. Will now go back and folow your process (and be prepared for the loose bearings). I agree, Park Tool have sone great content. Thanks.

What a brilliantly useful and beautifully shot video, thank you!

[Rick--A-F]

Thanks for taking the time to film the process. Now I know how they work!

[SomeuDontKnow]

Yes! Thank you. Had these brakes for ages now and always wanted to do an overhaul and there was never a video for it.
Evening planned :)

Bump. Thank you! It was so easy to rehab my old spyre with this. It was getting harder and then impossible to get new rotors or pads to fit without rubbing, even full open. I figure the three ball bearings were sticking and not allowing the inner 'ratchet' that controls the piston/calliper spread to fully open and the pads retract. Works like brand new now!!.

[tengilavkarmanjaka]

Exactly what I needed! Rear brake action is way too hard and making a nice crunching noise when lever is pulled, so the caliper definitely needs some cleaning...

Thanks a bunch!

Great video, used this to replace the 6x 3mm balls, one of them was completely broken and split in two parts.

[patrickfitzoot]

Perfect! I wish all maintenance videos were this good.

[dariuszsterczewski]

Dziękuję, właśnie to mi było potrzebne. Thank you, that's what I needed

[postvoorjohn]

All the info i need! Nice video and background music! Thanks for taking the time to make this👍
