Side Pull Brakes
• Once the brake pads are properly positioned, loosen the cable anchor nut on the Brake Arm (see Figure 62). Firmly
squeeze the brake pads against the rim of the tire, pull the cable taut, and re tighten the cable anchor nut using either
a 4, 5, or 6 mm Allen Wrench or a pair of Standard Slip Joint Pliers.)
• If your brake is not centered, or the pads are not contacting the rim at the same time, loosen the mounting nut holding
the brake to the fork (front) or the frame (rear) (see Figure 62). Squeeze the brake lever firmly, and tighten the brake
nut while continuing to squeeze the brake lever. Squeeze the brake lever several times to check to see if the brakes
are centered (see Figure 61).
Linear Pull Brakes
• Once the brake pads are properly positioned, loosen the cable anchor nut on the Brake Arm (See Figure 63). Firmly
squeeze the brake pads against the rim of the tire, pull the cable taut, and re tighten the cable anchor nut using either
a 4, 5, or 6 mm Allen Wrench or a pair of Standard Slip Joint Pliers.)
• If the brake pads do not contact the rim at the same time, use a Standard Phillips Head Screwdrivers to turn the
Adjustment Screws on the Brake Arm until they contact the rim at the same time when pulling the brake lever.
Mechanical Disc Brakes
• To ensure that the brake caliper is positioned correctly, loosen the bolts holding it in place, and position it so that the
outside brake pad is slightly closer to the rotor than the inside brake pad (see Figures 64 & 65). Then re-tighten those
caliper mounting bolts, alternating until they are both tight. Spin the wheel to make sure there is no rubbing on any
point on the rotor.)
• Squeeze the brake lever to test the caliper. The brake should fully engage before the lever is pulled back to the
handlebar. If you're able to pull the lever all the way to the handlebar, or they feel too soft, use the barrel adjuster
on the Caliper and the Brake Lever to adjust the tension until it feels more firm.
