How to Check Wheel Rim Wear

How to Check Wheel Rim Wear
Check the condition of wheel rims wear before
every ride.
It is important to your safety, that, you also
check the surface wear of the wheel rims (in
addition to brake pad wear). This is the area of
the wheel where the brake pads contact the rim.
Rims can wear out.
How Can You Check Rim Wear?
Some wheels have wear indicators built in.
Some indicators are depressions in the rim
lower that the surface where the pads touch.
When the surface reaches this depression the
wheel is worn out. Other indicators are visible
markings or signs that are exposed to view
when the braking surface is worn out.
Consult the wheel manufacturer’s instructions/
manuals for information on how to check wear
for your specific wheels.
WARNING
Bicycle wheel rims are subject to wear and
damage. A worn-out or damaged wheel rim has
reached its maximum usable life and must be
replaced.
Riding on unusable “worn-out” or damaged
wheels can lead to braking or wheel failure.
Replace your wheel when they become
worn-out or damaged.
Do not ride your bike when the wheels are
damaged or worn-out.
Ask your Dealer for help with inspecting the
rim wear of your wheels.
You can be severely injured, paralyzed or killed in
an accident if you ignore this message.

WARNING
Some road bikes are equipped with disc brakes.
Relative to conventional rim brakes, disc brakes
are less aected by water, do not wear or heat the
rims and therefore are more consistent. Disc
brakes also may be more powerful.
To minimize risk of injury or accidents:
Understand that road bikes have a relatively
small tire contact patch (part of the tire that
touches the road). In order to apply the
brakes safely and eectively, you may need
more or less braking force in dierent
situations. You need to take into account
various road and weather conditions that can
aect traction.
Disc brakes are excellent, but not some kind
of magic. Take some time riding your new
disc brake road bike in lower risk
circumstances to get used to the feel and
performance of the disc brakes and tires.
You can be severely injured, paralyzed or killed in
an accident if you ignore this message.
