    The tiny hole in the reservoir cap prevents air from being trapped behind the expandable rubber bladder that separates the brake fluid from the outside world

    Formula The One - Pad sensitivity?

    I wouldn't really consider it as a feature, more like a question of displacement of volume. When your pad life diminished, your pistons must extend past their bore. To compensate for such the oil in your line fills the gap. Once your fluid is displaced, your lever seems to have more throw since...

    Facing....or No Facing

    Last question: After reading the park site, with no real indication as to how to do this. Say your is measured at 68.7 instead of 68.0 How would you go about facing it? I know your supposed to always work via the drive side when reducing it, but would you go half half on both sides? or just take...

    Facing....or No Facing

    Noticed something very particular. On the park site, when facing the BB, it clearly states "DO NOT rotate facer counter-clockwise, this may dull the facer teeth." Yet I watched this video on how to use the cyclus cutter, and the guy is going Counter-Clock on the drive side. Unless the Cyclus...

    Going tubeless, giggidy.
