New rotor and pads installation questions
Posted: Wed Sep 28, 2016 1:48 am
Hey boyos,
I've got my new rotor and brake pads ready to go on, but I want to check some things with you gurus fist.
From my Googlies, Maddiedog says 31ft/lbs for the rotor botls (WOW!) and 44ft/lbs for the axle nut.
Since it's a sensitive part of the bike, can anyone please tell me the torque values for the caliper assembly?
Other than that, I think I just need to clean the pistons before pushing them back in before reassembly.
Is there anything else I need to know? Apply grease to the back of the pads or anything weird like that?
Cheese, Gav.
