Check at regular intervals, whether the brake pads are still sufficiently
thick. The wear of the pads can be checked at the inspection window on
the upper side of the brake calliper. If the gap between the sheet metal
brake pad backing plate and the rotor has decreased to approx. 1 mm,
remove the pads according to the manufacturer’s operating instructions,
check them thoroughly and replace them, if necessary.
After readjusting check the functioning and make sure the brake pads do
not drag when releasing the brake lever and spinning the wheel.
Repeated readjustment at the brake lever makes the arm on the brake
calliper change its position. This can make the brake less effective and
result in a complete brake failure in an extreme case. Risk of accident!
Some models offer further ways of adjusting the brakes directly at the
brake calliper, though this requires a certain amount of skill.
5.6.4. Checking and Readjusting in the Case of Hydraulic
Disc Brakes
Regularly check the lines and connections for leaks while pulling on the
lever. If hydraulic oil or brake fluid leaks out, you should take appropriate
measures immediately, as a leak can render your brakes ineffective. Risk
of accident!
Most of the brake models are equipped with a mechanism which auto-
matically compensates for the wear. Before every ride, check whether you
get a clear-cut braking response before the lever touches the handlebars.
The Brake System
Caution:
If your brake system works
with DOT brake uid, the
latter needs to be replaced
regularly according to the
intervals prescribed by the
manufacturer.
Note:
In any case, be sure to read
the original instructions of
the brake manufacturer on
the STEVENS CD-ROM before
adjusting the brakes.
Check at regular intervals, whether the brake pads are still sufficiently
