Owh and as an ontopic remark,
With a larger diameter brake cylinder you increase the volume of brake fluid you push into the system with the same travel of the brake paddle. The volume of brake fluid defines the amount of force that you excert on the brake pads. I do wonder if this does mean you also have to excert more force on the brake paddle but I think there is a lever effect here. The force your foot excerts on the brake paddle is far less then the force that is excerted on the pads. With a lever offcourse the effect is generated because the force you excert is excerted on a longer distance then on the 'recieving' end. Also with a powered brake you should be able to excert more force with a larger cylinder for sure. But this is all pretty unformiliar terratory for me ![]() Does anybody have a good site that actually explains this stuff and especially how a brake booster works? Because that is the key here I think. Greetz, Bastiaan "mux213" Olij Moved down under, no more hachi ![]() |
