7.1. Braking
Pull backward on the levers to apply the brakes. The brakes work when the brake bar on the
lever comes into contact with the tire.
For added braking force, have the rider pull backward from the top of the levers . This
provides more leverage and much better brake performance. They can also “hug” the levers by
putting them in the crooks of their arms and pulling them toward their body.
WARNING:
WET CONDITIONS DECREASE BRAKING PERFORMANCE.
Use caution when riding in wet conditions. Wet tires require more braking force for stopping.
Riding in wet conditions without the ability to apply the braking force required for stopping
could result in a loss of control, which could result in a collision or a fall.
Note: Pull backward on the levers to engage the brakes.
