I agree, the smaller diameter MC piston will deliver more pressure to the
calipers with the same lever pull as a larger diameter one. It will do
this at a sacrifice to fluid flow, it will not move as much fluid. If the
caliper pistons are smallish then all is well, if they are larger or more of
them (tokico) then it probably will not work. However the larger piston MC
will work with the smaller piston calipers, you will just work your fingers
more.
