b ca
To readjust the brakes, unscrew the knurled lock ring located at the point where
the brake cable enters the brake lever on the handlebars (a). Unscrew the
knurled, slotted adjusting bolt by a few turns. This reduces the free travel of the
brake lever. Keeping the adjusting bolt firm, tighten the lock ring against the
brake lever unit. This prevents the adjusting bolt from coming loose by itself.
Ensure that the slot of the bolt faces neither forward nor upward, as this would
permit water or dirt to enter more easily.
WARNING
Always test the brakes’ function when stationary after adjusting them and
make sure the brake pads engage fully with the rim without touching the
tyre, when you pull them hard.
DISC BRAKES
Operation and wear
The most striking feature of disc brakes (b) is their outstanding braking effect.
They respond a lot faster in wet conditions than rim brakes do and achieve their
normal high braking power within a very short time. They require little mainte-
nance and do not wear down the rims as rim brakes do. Disc brakes consist of
the brake calliper (c), the rotor, the brake lines (hydraulic) or cables (mechan-
ical) as well as the brake lever unit. Actuating the brake lever compresses the
hydraulic pistons through hydraulic pressure or mechanically, pushing the brake
pads against the rotor.
The friction generated by braking causes wear to the brake pads as well as to
the rotors. Frequent rides in the rain and dirt and on uneven ground can accel-
erate wear on both braking surfaces. Depending on the manufacturer and the
model there are different ways of checking the brake pads and rotors for their
wear limits.
