Technical Specifications & Notes.
- Master cylinder will be supplied with the screw adjuster set at position 0 (i.e. with the adjuster flush with locknut as on the Technical Drawing) at this setting piston travel is at its maximum, which will give best conditions for bleeding the brake system. Typical working stroke is shown as a guide (see table opposite) only working stroke should be set to riders preference. After initial setting only small adjustments, typically ±½ turn should be necessary to suit differing conditions.
- Lever travel will usually increase slightly in dynamic applications over static settings due to disc runout etc. it is therefore advisable to set lever feel on the hard side for initial test.
- Important: If any impact is sustained on lever causing a high pressure input to brake system, the whole system should be replaced.
