Anybody care to explain:
"Considering using a M/C with a constant bore for both fronts and rears, an INCREASE in WHEEL cylinder bore to a LARGER DIAMETER will produce LESS pressure at the wheel cylinder/brake shoes. Inversely, DECREASING wheel cylinder bore to a SMALLER DIAMETER will INCREASE pressure at wheel cylinder/brake shoes."
All my hydraulic experiences in the last 40 years are the opposite.
