Brake cable and housing
Brake cable and hosing quality is important to insure a correct braking
performance.
Giant recommends SHIMANO or JAGWIRE CEX.
As shown on the figure above, a hosing connector is necessary to facilitate
maintenance and the AeroDrive cockpit disassembly.
For a traditional cable routing, front brake is mounted on the left, rear brake
on the right.
For United Kingdom or Australia, front brake is mounted on the right, rear
brake on the left.
