Rear brake cable and casing
• Fit the brake cable (1,600 mm long -
diameter ø 1.6 mm) in the bushing on the
Ergopower control brake lever, making
sure that the cable stop head fits into its
seat (Fig. 31).
• 1998 range and later Ergopower con-
trols do not require a brake casing end.
• Depending on your frame, it may be
necessary to cut the rear brake casing
(1,250 mm long - diameter ø 5 mm)
and install a casing lead end (diameter
ø 6 mm, not supplied in your Ergopower
package).
• Fit the casing (without the casing end)
in the brake casing retainer and secure
the cable to the brake (refer to the brake
instruction manual for proper attachment of
the cable to the brake).
WARNING!
Before cutting the casing, carefully check that the length you choose is
suitable for the size of your frame. Insufficient slack in the cable and casing
could affect your ability to turn or control your bicycle, resulting in an acci-
dent, personal injury or death.
Front brake cable and casing
• Fit the brake cable (800 mm long - diameter ø 1.6 mm) in the bushing on
the Ergopower control brake lever, making sure that the cable stop head
fits into its seat (Fig. 31).
WARNING!
Before cutting the casing, carefully check that the length you choose
is suitable for the size of your frame. Insufficient slack in the cable and
casing could affect your ability to turn or control your bicycle, resulting in
an accident, personal injury or death.

Adjusting the cable tension
• Rear derailleur cable tension can
be modified by turning the adjuster (A
- Fig. 32) on the casing retainer clamp
(not included in the pack) or by using
the adjuster (B - Fig. 33) placed on the
rear derailleur body.
• Front derailleur cable tension can
only be modified with the adjuster (A
- Fig. 32) on the casing retainer clamp
(not included in the pack) or by means
of the adjustment system envisaged by
the frame manufacturer.
Taping the handlebar
• Raise the support cover as shown in
Figure 34.
• Tape the handlebar, taking care to
pass the tape beneath the slit (C - Fig.
34) of the Ergopower body.
Be sure that you do not cover the
groove (D - Fig. 34) on the lower part
of the body because you could inter-
fere with the correct functioning of the
Ergopower.
• Refit the support cover in position.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning Ergopower could
result in an accident, personal injury
or death.
