text: A piston on the inner side of the disc pushes that brake pad as if to move the disc but because the disc can't slide, the force pulls the sliding caliper with another brake pad unto the other side of the disc.
text: As pressure is increased, the pistons force the brake pads against the rotor evenly, therefore maintaining an equal amount of pressure on both sides of the rotor.
text: The pistons push the two brake pads unto both sides of the disc.
text: In this system, the twin pistons push the brake pads to apply the brake.
