Caliper and Disk brakes
what is the best way to bleed brakes when installing new caliper on front left wheel
Bicycle brakes allow the rider to slow down in a controlled manner and with out undue wear on the tires.
The caliper is one part of the brake system.
It is your momentum of moving forward that has to be overcome before your brakes can bring the bicycle to a stop.
Depends on what you mean by best. Disc brakes tend to offer the most braking power for a given amount of force applied at the lever. But a disc brake setup is heavier and has poorer aerodynamics than caliper brakes. And disc brakes wear faster than drum brakes, roller brakes and band brakes. Disc brakes are not as well sealed as drums or rollers, so performance will still be slightly weather dependent.
Brakes turn kinetic energy into heat.
Using brakes slows your speed.
A tutorial on how to adjust bicycle front cantilever brakes can be found on Youtube in the form of a video outlining the key steps one should take to adjust the bicycle front cantilever brakes.

Should be disc brakes and not adjustable caliper slides to compensate for lining wear unless caliper slides are frozen
THe brakes rarely need to stop. But the brakes can be used to make the bike stop.
