Adjust the brakes. The distance between the brake shoe and the rim should
not be more than 2mm. If the brake pad becomes worn, it should be
replaced immediately. Read below section on brake testing.
Brake Testing
Squeeze the brake levers. The brake levers should be easy for you to reach,
and engage the brakes completely when pulled in. You should not be able to
pull the brake lever in until it touches the handlebar or grip. Test the brakes
and the brake lever adjustment; you should be able to comfortably control
your brakes. If the brake is adjusted too loose, the extra play will cause
insufficient braking power. The play is properly adjusted if the brake pads
meet the rim fully when the brake lever is pulled one-third of the way.
If you have any questions about the operation or adjusting the brakes, contact the
IES Service Department at 1-866-726-6856.
Local bicycle shops are usually willing to assemble bicycles for a fee. They will often
check a bicycle for safety at no charge.
If you have any questions please call the IES Service Department at 1-866-726-
