  1. Any point in installing a second caliper?
    In theory, with the pressure provided from pressing the brake cylinder being the same, adding a second caliper would give half the pressure power per caliper, compared to signle caliper, and therefore the same brake power. The only difference being that the brake power is spread over double the brake pad surface. As long as the brakes are not heating too much the brake power should remain approximately the same.
    In theory - but theory and reality does not always align... 
    I'm looking for real life experience in adding a second caliper (while not alos changing the rest of the installation).
    Did it make any difference? Nop, a little, some, night and day...
