Abstract
A diagnostic method for a bicycle hydraulic disc braking system, having a master cylinder assembly with a cylinder inside which a piston reciprocates against the action of a return spring. The master cylinder has a hydraulic tank with a bottom, a ceiling, and a membrane that divides the hydraulic tank into two chambers. The hydraulic tank is connected to the cylinder through the bottom. A metering device measures the distance between the membrane and the ceiling of the tank. The output signal of the metering device is evaluated to determine that operation is correct when the membrane temporarily approaches the ceiling by a predetermined extent range, or incorrect otherwise. A positive evaluation reflects the correct operating condition, and a negative evaluation reflects an incorrect operating condition.
