Loosen the caliper bolts slightly, squeeze the brake lever firmly to center the caliper over the rotor, and retighten the bolts while maintaining pressure on the lever.
Ensure you are using the correct metric hex key size and that the tool is fully seated in the bolt head before applying torque.
To install, first ensure the fork threads are clean of debris. Attach the adapter to the fork using the provided bolts, tightening them to the torque specification recommended by your fork manufacturer. Mount the caliper to the adapter, ensuring you leave the bolts slightly loose to align the pads with the rotor. Once centered, torque the caliper bolts down. Regarding care, regularly inspect the mounting bolts for any signs of vibration-induced loosening. Keep the area free of excess grime to prevent any potential galvanic corrosion between the adapter and the fork interface.
