STEP 9. Front Brake
Cannondale Bicycle Owner’s Manual
Again, pick up the front of the bike and spin the front wheel. Do you see or hear dragging from
the front brake? If no drag, no noise, torque the two caliper mounting bolts to 7 Nm.
Mechanical disc brakes have one brake pad that is stationary. The other brake pad is pushed
against the rotor.
Mechanical disc brakes have a 5mm brake pad adjustment screw that can be used to set the
clearance between the stationary brake pad and the rotor. Look carefully at this clearance in the
caliper as you turn the brake pad adjustment screw. Turning clockwise will reduce the clearance
by moving the brake pad in. Turning the screw counter clockwise will increase clearance,
eliminate drag, by moving the brake pad out. Your goal is to have clearance between the
stationary brake pad and the rotor to be very close, but not drag.
DISC  Hydraulic
(no metal cable, instead plastic lines or tubes that contain brake fluid):
The hydraulic lines are already routed, connected and full of brake fluid. But you still need to
adjust the position of the brake caliper.
WARNING
Do not loosen or take apart any hydraulic brake line or fitting.
Pick up the front of the bike and spin the front wheel. Do you see or hear dragging from the
front brake? If yes, adjustment is needed.
Locate and loosen the two caliper mounting bolts with the 5mm allen wrench. Loosen just
enough to be able to move the caliper with your hand.
