## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this truly just for hydraulic disc brakes, or will it work for mechanical disc brakes too?**
A: I tried this tool with method of holding down the brake lever and tightening the mounting bolts and it did not work as you think it would. The outboard side was too close to the rotor, basically touching. Then I tried again, but this time tightening the inboard (fixed) caliper adjustment bolt so the brakes squeezed the rotor with this tool inserted. Then tightened the mounting bolts WITHOUT holding down the brake lever. Then loosened the inboard caliper adjustment bolt back to normal position and removed the tool. This time it worked. No rub. I'll try it on my other bike with mechanical disc brakes to see if I get the same result.

**Q: Would I need to loosen the caliper and then insert the tool in? Squeeze the brake and then tighten again? Is that how this works?**
A: This is a precise tool. A bit difficult to verbalize but I will try. Very important, do not work brake lever after pads have been removed.
1). After removing pads, loosen caliper screws so caliper can move sightly and expand the caliper with proper caliper tool.
2). Place Caliper spacer (yellow or orange) in caliper if you have the caliper off frame.
3). Put in new pads and secure to caliper.
4). Place Hayes gauge on both sides of rotor between brake pads.
5). Activate brake lever 4-5 times. Place a strong rubber band around lever to keep pressure on.
6). Tighten caliper bolts.
7). Release rubber band from brake lever.
8.) Spin wheel and you should not hear rubbing of pads against rotor. If you do, repeat procedure.  

Hope this is beneficial.

**Q: Is it going to work for sram etap hydraulic road disc caliper? i am mad about noise all the time..**
A: You can cut the noise by sanding the pads and the disc itself to remove that shiny glaze and any dirt that got in between them. That usually works for awhile. The problem may not be with the caliper. Try different pads and rotors first.

**Q: Can you use this with Shimano XT brakes?**
A: You can and i have but usually you dont need it with Shimano disc brakes of any level. Pump the brake lever till tight, tighten bolts very slowly and strap the lever down for a while and usually they are good.Much needed on Hayes brakes..Shimano brakes are the best....Good luck.Great tool, a must have....

    Essential tool for aligning bike disc brake calipers
  

*by R***T on Reviewed in the United States on 10 July 2024*

My new Ebike had a loose front wheel caliper which required me to re-align the caliper to prevent rubbing. Doing this by eye and trial and error was possible, but very fiddly. With caliper alignment shims, this job is very easy, and this tool will do the job, and more. The shims fold up against the rest of the brake tool, keeping them from getting bent or misaligned. It's compact enough to toss it into your portable tool kit.

Facilita bastante el trabajo de andar ajustando el espacio entre el disco y los frenos. Literalmente a la primera resolvi el molesto ruido de los frenos.
