Product Details

Overview & Technology

SRAM Level Ultimate/Silver Res Cap Kit is the OEM replacement reservoir cap assembly for SRAM Level Ultimate and Level Silver Stealth C1 brake levers (SRAM Model ID: DB-SPP-A0, MPN 11.5018.055.003, Product #200955). The kit includes the reservoir cap, a flexible silicone bladder, and the mounting hardware you need to restore the lever’s sealing system after service or damage. The cap is precision-machined for a snug, vibration-resistant fit that protects the brake fluid reservoir from contamination and pressure fluctuations. The silicone bladder prevents aeration by maintaining a positive fluid pressure in the reservoir, while corrosion-resistant fasteners ensure long-term reliability in wet, muddy mountain conditions.

Key Features & Benefits

Complete OEM kit: includes reservoir cap, bladder and stainless mounting screws so you get a factory-fit replacement exactly matched to your Level Ultimate/Silver lever body. Replacing a worn or cracked cap restores a proper seal, reduces the chance of leaks, and prevents rode-time failures. Real-world benefits: lightweight, durable construction keeps unsprung weight low and lasts through repeated services and trail abuse; the soft silicone bladder smooths pressure spikes for consistent lever feel and easier bleeding. The kit’s compact shipping size (5.15" x 2.6" x 0.5") and 0.1 lb weight make it simple to carry as a spare on long rides or pack for shop storage.

Fit, Compatibility & Installation

This kit is specifically designed for SRAM Level Ultimate and Level Silver Stealth C1 brake levers. Confirm compatibility by checking the SRAM Model ID (DB-SPP-A0) or the manufacturer part number (11.5018.055.003). While it’s an OEM fit for Level series levers, it is not intended for other SRAM brake families (e.g., Guide, G2) unless explicitly listed by SRAM. Installation is straightforward for any home mechanic familiar with brake service: remove the lever’s old cap, clean the reservoir lip, fit the new silicone bladder, seat the cap and torque the screws to SRAM’s recommended specification. Perform a full bleed after installation to remove air — the new bladder helps maintain a stable top-off during and after bleeding.

Who This Kit Is For

This reservoir cap kit is for mountain riders, mechanics, and shop techs who run SRAM Level Ultimate or Level Silver brakes and need an OEM replacement after damage, wear, or routine rebuilds. It's ideal for cross-country and trail riders who prioritize a lightweight, reliable brake system and want factory-correct parts to maintain performance. If you ride in wet, muddy, or winter conditions where seals and bladders take extra punishment, keeping this spare on-hand is smart preventative maintenance. It's also a necessary part when overhauling or upgrading lever internals to ensure leak-free operation and consistent lever feel.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this cap kit compatible with all SRAM brakes?

No. This kit is specifically made for SRAM Level Ultimate and Level Silver Stealth C1 levers (SRAM Model ID DB-SPP-A0, MPN 11.5018.055.003). It is not guaranteed to fit other SRAM brake families like Guide or G2. Always check model IDs before ordering.

What tools do I need to install the reservoir cap kit?

Basic tools are required: a torque-capable hex driver matching the kit screws, clean shop rags, isopropyl alcohol for cleaning the reservoir lip, and a bleed kit for your brake fluid type. Tighten screws to SRAM’s recommended torque to avoid stripping or overtightening.

Do I need to bleed the brakes after installing this kit?

Yes. Replace the cap and bladder then perform a full brake bleed to ensure there is no trapped air. The silicone bladder helps maintain pressure during bleeding, but a proper bleed restores lever feel and braking reliability.

What materials are used in the kit?

The kit uses a precision-machined aluminum reservoir cap (anodized for corrosion resistance), a flexible silicone bladder to prevent aeration, and stainless steel hardware for long-term durability in wet conditions.

Can I carry this as a trail spare?

Yes. The kit is compact and lightweight (approx. 5.15" x 2.6" x 0.5" and 0.1 lb), making it a practical spare for multiday rides or race support kits. You’ll still need basic tools and bleed supplies if you must replace and service on the trail.

How do I verify the part number before buying?

Check the lever body for the SRAM Model ID (DB-SPP-A0) and compare the manufacturer part number 11.5018.055.003 or our product number 200955. If you're unsure, send photos of your lever to Forest Bikes’ support for confirmation.

Buying Guide

When buying a reservoir cap kit, prioritize OEM parts that match your lever’s model ID and manufacturer part number to ensure proper sealing and fit. Replace caps and bladders when you see surface cracks, plastic deformation, or after any crash where the lever body has been impacted. Also consider whether you’ll perform the bleed yourself: if so, buy a compatible bleed kit and DOT fluid, and follow SRAM’s bleed procedure. For shop installs, keep a spare cap kit on hand for quick turnaround during service season.
