ALIGN THE CALIPER (BB5 ONLY)
A. Use your fingers or a Torx® wrench to turn the inboard pad adjustment knob clockwise until
the rotor is centered in the caliper. This positions the pads for the next step in the installation.
B. Make sure the CPS bolts are loose enough for the caliper to move freely.
C. Squeeze the brake lever to compress the brake pads firmly on the rotor.
D. While still holding the brake lever, tighten the CPS bolts.
Once they are tight, you can let go of the lever.
