MTB Brakes
MTBs use hydraulic disc brakes. As brakes are vital to your safety, please allow
your dealer to carry out any work on your braking system. Please also consult the
brake manufacturers manual.
Adjusting your brakes
The need to (re-) adjust your brakes may become necessary after having carried out
various forms of work on your braking system. However, even in the case of normal
operation, there is always abrasion between the braking components which results
in an increased leverage being necessary before braking sets in. As an immediate
and exact braking reaction is decisive for your safety, the lever must always be
correctly adjusted.
A correctly adjusted brake should not drag
when the lever is not pulled; on the other
hand, you should never be able to squeeze
the brake lever all the way through to the
handlebars. The full braking effect must be
reached at a much earlier lever position! For
correct adjustment details, please consult
your brake manufacturers manual.
This manual also contains a manufacturers instruction
supplement. Please read this carefully before your first ride, or
find the information online.
Hydraulic disc brakes
Important: The disc can become very hot,
particularly when braking on long downhill
stretches. To prevent this, you should avoid
constant partial braking. Incorrect braking may
lead to brake failure. Hydraulic brakes are
extremely efficient and, at the same time, need
relatively little maintenance.
Avoid touching the brake disc, it may still be very hot some time after braking.
The hydraulic lines must always be undamaged and intact.
IMPORTANT: Open connectors or leaking linkages can lead to a severe loss of
braking power. Examine your braking system regularly, if you find leakage or
damaged brake lines, please consult your dealer.
