Installing front brake discs (carbon ceramic brake)

NOTE: In the event of a repair, an individual brake disk (front axle/rear axle) may be exchanged. When replacing a brake disk (especially on the front axle), an exchange of the brake pads by axle is recommended because of the risk of initial skewing when braking during the break-in phase and the associated risk of repeat repairs. From a technical point of view, however, this is not absolutely necessary. Depending on the state of wear and the contact pattern of the brake pads, decisions must be taken on an individual basis according to the situation.

Clean contact surface of wheel hub thoroughly and remove any traces of rust if necessary.
Irregularities in the contact surface can cause distortion in the brake disc!
