Brake System
The muli has hydraulic disc brakes on the front and rear wheel.
The left brake lever operates the front wheel brake.
The right brake lever operates the rear brake.
If you are not familiar with this brake lever assignment or have previously ridden
bikes with coaster brakes, you must carefully get used to the braking system and the
braking behavior of the muli.
Note that the installed hydraulic disc brakes have a very high braking effect - dose
the braking force carefully. Always apply both brakes at the same time. Especially
the use of the front brake alone is to be avoided on the muli due to the wide distan-
ce between handlebar and front wheel. On rough, sandy, uneven, very slippery, wet
surfaces and when cornering, applying the front brake alone can very easily cause
the front wheel to slip and lead to serious falls.
Keep in mind that the braking distance and braking behavior change depending on
the load conditions and the slope of the road. Braking distance increases when ri-
ding at high speeds and on sloping roads.
Check the screws on the brake caliper and the brake pads once a month. The brake
pads are wearing parts. Replace the brake pads when they are less than 1mm thick.
Check the brake system regularly for leaks.
For more information on the installed Shimano hydraulic disc brakes,
see the manufacturer‘s instructions on the web at:

When replacing the brake pads or other parts of the brake sys-
tem, use only original spare parts from the component manu-
facturer!
Never apply the front brake alone when cornering or when the
steering angle is low. Such braking behavior can very quickly
cause the front wheel to slip and thus lead to serious falls.
Note that the installed, hydraulic disc brakes have a very high
braking effect - dose the braking force carefully.
Please note that the grip of the tires is reduced in wet conditi-
ons and the braking distances increase accordingly. Brake ear-
lier on wet roads. Drive with foresight.
