2.3.2 Rear V-type brake:
The rear brake is operated by the right handle on the handlebar.
As with the brake before fully tightening the nut on the brake lever, this adjustment will allow you to compensate
later for the natural slackening of the brake cable.
Then check (
Cf : 2.3.1
) :
-
The pressure that the brake pads exert on the rim by tightening or loosening the nut with a screwdriver.
-
The brake pads attached to the caliper are tightened with the 5mm Allen key.
The pads are properly adjusted when they are at equal distance from the rim.
The control of your adjustment is correct, when the wheel, turning freely, stops smoothly.
