Doesn't matter; I cooked one of my rotors because the spring/ lever that
the little ball on the cable hooks into froze, clamping the caliper shut.
Pry the lever all the way out to its resting position and try it again.


We always assumed the problem was the cable...it wasn't.  Lousy design on
the part of the caliper manufacturer; after 130k miles it just rusted up
and froze.
