Second way: on some models, there is a barrel
adjustor on the brake lever (see Figure 26). Turn the
adjusting barrel counterclockwise by hand and check
the setting by squeezing the levers.
Figure 15 –Brake Adjustments
When your brakes wear out, the barrel adjuster won’t
work. You’ll need to turn the barrel adjusters all the
way in (clockwise) and replace the brake pads. If the
cable has stretched too far, you need to loosen the
clamp bolt and tighten the cable.
