ALIGN THE CALIPER (BB7 ONLY)

A.
Turn the inboard (closest to the wheel) knob clockwise until it
pushes the rotor into the position shown. Note that the rotor should
not be centered between the walls of the caliper body.
B.
Turn the outboard pad adjustment knob in until it is firmly
squeezing the rotor against the inboard pad – thus immobilizing the
actuating arm. Your caliper is now in perfect position and ready to
be tightened. You'll back the pads off again in a few moments.
C.
Tighten the two CPS bolts that attach the caliper to the mounting bracket.
Tighten one and then the other, repeating until they are at the specified torque.
