Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the brake system is properly bled after installation using the included bleeder screw. Verify that the caliper bracket is securely mounted and that caliper slides move freely to prevent uneven pad wear.

Inspect all hardware and dust boots during installation to confirm correct fitment and protection against debris.
