So what you are saying is it doesn't matter how you mount it except it being securely mounted? Doesn't the brake torque figure somewhere in this? The caliper must be at least at the top half to get the maximum torque (the radial distance being from the ground for same brake force) Any solid...

I had a nagging doubt for quite some time, the answer to which still eludes me. The brake caliper mounting on the front and rear wheels, is it mounted in some fixed position?
