Cervélo Owner’s Manual
The rear wheel must be secured to the bicycle frame with
sufficient force so that it cannot be pulled forward by the
chain, even under the greatest pedaling force. If the wheel
moves under pedaling force, the tire can touch the frame,
which can cause you to loose control and fall.
(6) If the lever cannot be pushed all the way to a position parallel to
the chainstay or seatstay tube, return the lever to the OPEN position.
Then turn the adjusting nut counterclockwise one-quarter turn
and try tightening again.
(7) Push the rear derailleur back into position.
(8) Re-engage the brake quick-release mechanism to restore correct
brake pad-to-rim clearance; spin the wheel to make sure that it is
centered in the frame and clears the brake pads; then squeeze the
brake lever and make sure that the brakes are operating correctly.
C. Brakes
WARNING:
1. Riding with improperly adjusted brakes or worn brake pads
is dangerous and can result in serious injury or death.
2. Applying brakes too hard or too suddenly can lock up a wheel,
which could cause you to lose control and fall. Sudden or excessive
application of the front brake may pitch the rider over the
handlebars, which may result in serious injury or death.
3. See the brake manufacturer’s instructions for operation and care
of your brakes. If you do not have the manufacturer’s instructions,
see your dealer or contact the brake manufacturer.
1. Brake Controls and Features
It’s very important to your safety that you learn and remember which
brake lever controls which brake on your bike. Cervélo bicycles will be
set up by the dealer initially so that the right hand brake lever controls
the rear brake, and the left hand brake lever controls the front brake.
Make sure that your hands can reach and squeeze the brake levers
comfortably. If your hands are too small to operate the levers may be
adjustable; or you may need a different brake lever design.
Most brakes have some form of quick-release mechanism to allow the
brake pads to clear the tire when a wheel is removed or reinstalled.
When the brake quick release is in the open position, the brakes are
inoperative. Ask your dealer to make sure that you understand the way
the brake quick release works on your bike (see figs. 8 & 9) and check
each time to make sure both brakes work correctly before you get on
the bike.
2. How Brakes Work
The braking action of a bicycle is a function of the friction between
the brake surfaces — usually the brake pads and the wheel rim. To
