This caliper is a stepped piston design, with two
independent
hydraulic systems contained in the same
caliper body. The caliper piston is T-shaped, which
allows both left and right hand brake to use the same
caliper piston, but remain separated by seals. The left
hand brake system applies hydraulic pressure to both
front calipers and only the outer diameter of the rear
caliper piston. The right hand brake applies pressure
to the inner portion of the rear caliper piston. Because
the left and right hand brake hydraulic systems are
separate, there are also two bleed screws -- one for
the outer fluid chamber (left hand brake), and one for
the inner fluid chamber (right hand brake). The basic
procedure for bleeding the brake system is the same
as outlined on Page 9.6 - 9.7; however, each system
must be bled separately.
