Work doesn’t progress on weekends<\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

With so many pickups and deliveries
I can’t make solid progress on the work.

I’m just assembling the parts that came off
and the paint finish is looking really nice\u266a<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

This time the rear caliper is also in the same color
and it’s become so much cleaner all at once

Even if fluid leaks, it won’t peel off
so it’s extremely reliable\u266a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parts inspection ABC
I’ve written this many times
but there was one time in the past
when different stickers got mixed in
*Of course they were new

When people are involved
there’s always the possibility of problems occurring.

In the case of new parts
the manufacturer bears some responsibility
but if the technician checks them
problems can be prevented before they happen
and users can enjoy their bikes with peace of mind

Always make sure to check!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s nothing particularly tricky about it
just assembly

Since the seal groove is finished
it’s pretty straightforward.

90% of it is cleaning<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m the type who doesn’t wrap seal tape

Bleeder screws do seep from the threaded part, right?
This is because
there’s residual fluid inside

it’s not coming out from pressure.
It’s just insufficient final cleaning

Nipple lock
\u2193
Parts cleaner (for dilution)
*Wrap with a rag
\u2193
Blow the nipple hole with a hose-shaped air gun

That’s perfect
it will never seep.
Well, if you don’t want to bother, use seal tape…

In that case
be careful because iron nipples rust easily.
*I’m a titanium nipple person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s how it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sorry about that.
The pads you brought in…
there was only one front and one rear.
I’ll contact you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
