Abstract

A brake system and a method of performing a release operation with the brake system. The brake system comprises a sliding caliper body and a fixed caliper body. The fixed caliper body has a stop formed therein and accommodates a spindle nut that mates with the stop in a release operation. The brake system comprises a spindle that drives the spindle nut in a second direction during the release operation. Continued translation of the spindle after mating of the spindle nut with the stop drives the sliding caliper body in a first direction opposing the second direction.
