Nut clamping
Adjusting the brakes
Before every use, check that the front and rear brakes are working perfectly.
The handle on the right activates the rear brake. The left handle activates the front brake.
It is recommended to distribute your braking force approximately 60/40 between the front and rear.
The brake lever should not be in contact with the handlebars, and the sheaths should not be bent
at right angles so that the cables can slide with a minimum of friction. Damages, fraying, rusty cables
must be changed immediately.
WARNINGS:
•
In case of rain or damp weather, braking distances are longer. It is
recommended to anticipate braking in such a situation.
•
If turning and braking, the handlebars can have a negative influence on the
cyclist's response time.
•
Do not touch the disc brakes after heavy use of your power-assisted bicycle's
braking system as you may get burnt.
Adjustment of mechanical disc brakes
The brake pads exert pressure on a disc fixed in the wheel hub. The intensity of the pressure is
regulated by a brake lever with a cable. Do not operate the brake lever when the wheel is detached
from the frame or fork.
To align the automatic disc brake bracket, unscrew the fixing screw from the brake bracket holder.
Brake with the corresponding brake lever (the brake bracket is positioned correctly) and hold the
brake handle in this position by tightening the bracket holder fixing screws.
