5.4.3. Synchronizing and Readjusting the Mini V-Brakes
For synchronizing the brake almost all cantilever and mini V-brakes
have a bolt on the side of one brake calliper to adjust the spring
preload. Screw this bolt until the clearance between brake pad and rim
is the same on either side.
To readjust the brakes, release the knurled lock ring located at the
point where the brake cable enters the additional brake lever on the
handlebars.
Unscrew the knurled, slotted adjusting bolt by a few turns. This short-
ens the free travel of the brake lever.
Keeping the adjusting bolt fixed, tighten the lock ring against the
brake lever mount. 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.
5.5. What to Bear in Mind with Brake Levers on
Cyclocross Bicycles
Some bicycles of the cyclocross model series are fitted with special Oxy-
gen additional brake levers on the handlebars which allow braking from a
safe grip position on the top handlebars when riding over difficult terrain.
These brake levers can be used on equal terms with the other road bike
brake levers. The simultaneous usage of both brake levers for one brake
is not possible.
They are also available for road bicycles with standard handlebars (no
oversize diameter 31.8 mm).
The Brake System
Danger:
Always test the brakes’
function when stationary after
adjusting them, making sure
the brake pads engage fully
with the rim when you pull
them hard.
