KuKirin G2 Master braking: the limits of the original brakes
The KuKirin G2 Master comes equipped with mechanical disc brakes as standard. This system uses a cable to activate the brake pads and clamp the brake disc.
While this setup is simple and functional, it quickly reaches its limits on such a powerful electric scooter. At higher speeds, braking can feel less precise and lack bite, reducing both comfort and safety.
The original 140 mm discs provide decent braking performance, but the Riders community often recommends upgrading the braking system for more powerful and reassuring braking.
KuKirin G2 Master XOD Hydraulic Brake: how it works and its advantages
The KuKirin G2 Master XOD Hydraulic Brake system represents a major upgrade compared to the stock mechanical brakes.
Unlike a cable-operated system, hydraulic brakes use mineral oil to transfer pressure from the brake lever directly to the caliper. This creates smoother, more precise, and more powerful braking.
XOD hydraulic brakes significantly improve the riding experience. Braking becomes more progressive, requires less hand effort, and remains effective even at higher speeds or on wet roads.
These brakes are designed to offer an excellent balance between performance, reliability, and affordability, making them one of the most popular upgrades within the community.
KuKirin G2 Master XOD Hydraulic Brake: technical specifications
The KuKirin G2 Master XOD Hydraulic Brake kit is specifically designed to fit the scooter perfectly.
The system uses a 2-pin connector, allowing motor cutoff while braking in order to improve safety.
Brake hose lengths are adapted to the KuKirin G2 Master configuration, with approximately 1350 mm at the front and 2150 mm at the rear.
The complete system weighs around 1 kg, which remains lightweight considering the braking performance improvement.
The braking setup relies on a dual-piston design, delivering strong and stable braking power.
Its aluminum alloy construction ensures both durability and lightweight performance.
The system is also designed to resist water and dust, improving reliability in more demanding riding conditions.

KuKirin G2 Master XOD Hydraulic Brake: the ultimate upgrade with 160 mm discs
For Riders looking for even more braking performance, the KuKirin G2 Master XOD Hydraulic Brake system can be paired with 160 mm brake discs.
The original setup uses 140 mm discs, which remain sufficient for standard riding. However, upgrading to 160 mm discs increases braking surface area, improves stopping power, and enhances heat dissipation.
The larger discs cool down faster and reduce the risk of brake fade during repeated hard braking.
