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. 24).
• 1998 range and later Ergopower™ control
levers do not require a brake casing end.
• Depending on your frame, it may be neces-
sary 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™ control levers 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 attach-
ment 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 accident, 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. 24).
• 1998 range and later Ergopower™ control levers do not require a brake
casing end.
• Fit the casing (580 mm long - diameter ø 5 mm) in the brake casing retai-
ner (without the casing end) 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 suita-
ble 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.

Taping the handlebar
• Raise the support cover as shown in
Figure 25.
• Tape the handlebar, taking care to
pass the tape beneath the slit (C - Fig.
25) of the Ergopower™ control body.
Be sure that you do not cover the
groove (D - Fig. 25) on the lower part
of the body because you could inter-
fere with the correct functioning of the
Ergopower™ control levers.
WARNING!
A malfunctioning Ergopower™ control lever could result in an accident, per-
sonal injury or death.
• Refit the support cover in position.
