;General Brake Maintenance
<onlyinclude>
* Check for pad wear or debris.
*: Keep the pads and discs clean.
*: An occasional brushing of the disc holes is worth doing maybe once a year.
* Check hydraulic fluid level.
*: Make sure the brake fluid is in good shape and the type/specs you need.
*: If in doubt, replace with fresh fluid (not from an already opened bottle).
* Make sure the brake fluid reservoir is not over-filled (top).
*: There has to be some empty space, or your bike will be lightly "braked" and your disk/pads will deteriorate prematurely...and you will get less range.
