If the rear brakes develop a leak，the primary piston will move forward until direct contact with the secondary piston takes place，and it will force the secondary piston to actuate the front brakes. In either case，the brake pedal moves farther when the brakes are applied，and less braking power is available. Disc brakes（自学） Instead of the traditional expanding brakes that press outward against a circular drum，disc brake systems utilize a disc (rotor) with brake pads positioned on either side of it. Braking effect is achieved in a manner similar to the way you would squeeze a spinning phonograph record between your fingers. The disc (rotor) is a casting with cooling fins between the two braking surfaces. This enables air to circulate between the braking surfaces making them less sensitive to heat buildup and more resistant to fade. Dirt and water do not affect braking action since contaminants are thrown off by the centrifugal action of the rotor or scraped off by the pads. Also，the equal clamping action of the two brake pads tends to ensure uniform，straight line stops. Disc brakes are inherently self-adjusting. There are three general types of disc brake: fixed caliper，floating caliper and sliding caliper. The fixed caliper design uses two pistons mounted on either side of the rotor (in each side of the caliper). The caliper is mounted rigidly and does not move. The sliding and floating designs are quite
