CAB LE & HOUSING WEAR
Worn, dirty or corroded cable and housing can drastically
affect the performance of the braking system. Replace
these components if necessary — see Brake Housing &
Cable Installation for Upright Bars or Drop Bars.
MOUNT FACING
In some cases, frame mounts may not be perfectly
square to the rotor, causing lateral misalignment at the
caliper. There is often no adjustment possible for this
type of misalignment, but a professional shop may be
able to face or machine the mounts with the Park Tool
DT-5.2 to improve alignment.
CONICAL WASHERS
Some manufacturers use a system of mating conical
washers. These help to align the vertical face of the pads
to the rotors. These washers must be designed into the
system, and cannot be added to brakes not designed for
them. Additionally, if the brakes came with these wash-
ers they must be used. If there are conical washers only
on top of the caliper, they should remain on top.
