> Rear venting clearance
Setting Venting Clearance
After installing a rebuilt/new rear caliper, I set venting clearance:
Before adding fluid [ 9 ] ** [16.98%]
After adding fluid/bleeding [ 31 ] ** [58.49%]
Both before and after [ 6 ] ** [11.32%]
What's venting clearance? [ 4 ] ** [7.55%]
I'm Eric Shea and set venting clearance with my godlike ESP powers over brake systems. :) [ 3 ] ** [5.66%]
