Adjusting the Hand Brake
The hand brake may be used to help
slow or stop a stroller. The hand
brake is not a parking brake.
NOTE: For the hand brake to work
correctly, it is critical that it be
adjusted properly. Squeeze the brake
lever and verify that the brake pads
contact the rim. Verify brake quick
release is in closed position. See
Front Wheel Installation section.
The hand brake system is equipped
with two barrel adjusters. If you
are not familiar with how to use the
barrel adjusters, please contact BOB
Gear customer service or visit your
local dealer for assistance.

position and tighten securely.

2� Adjust Cable Tension
The cable tension is pre-adjusted
at the factory, but the brake cable
will need periodic adjustment
(as the cable stretches slightly
and the black cable housing
compresses over time).
To adjust cable tension, there
are two barrel adjusters in the
brake system; one at the hand
brake lever, and one at the
caliper brake. To adjust the
brake cable tension, one or both
barrel adjusters may need to be
adjusted.
To tighten the cable, loosen the
lock ring and turn the barrel
adjuster in the counter clockwise
direction. Secure the barrel
adjuster in the new position by
tightening the lock ring against
the caliper or brake lever body.
To loosen the cable, turn the
barrel adjuster in a clockwise
direction and secure by tightening
the lock ring. There should be a
3/16"(5mm) clearance between
the rim and brake pads.
