What is the danger
The product poses a risk of injuries because the reduced torque suffices to release the threaded fasteners securing the front brake disc. At the limits of the range of tolerances the depth of engagement of the threaded fasteners might be insufficient. There is a possibility of threaded fasteners working loose. Under worst-case conditions there is a possibility of the brake disc becoming loose. Consequently, the possibility of safety-critical riding conditions occurring cannot be excluded.
