Re: [St] ST brakes

Hi Marc,

As the line for the left caliper goes from the right one, It is preferable to
disassemble the left caliper from the fork leg and old it up to get the air from 
the line to the caliper itself while bleeding it. That's what I do. The best thing 
would be to replace the inter caliper line w/ a one comming from the master 
cylinder directly but I didn't do it.
